GRAVY TRAIN “STAIRCASE TO THE DAY” DAWN DNLH 1 ORIGINAL
Somehow with Gravy Train, one never feel that they made too few of their albums to prove their worth (don’t get me wrong they were worthy in their early career) but failed to develop on a promising debut, unlike other lesser known early 70's British prog bands (Gnidrolog, Audience, Titus Groan, Tonton Macoute, Spring etc.......).
GRAVY TRAIN were a British quartet who play a very on the progressive rock side of classic rock. "Staircase to the Day" is considered a classic in the prog rock circles and I must agree. GRAVY TRAIN blend the English style classic rock sound with progressive movements creating an excellent but very different style. "Staircase..." offers nice mood swing throughout and ranges from HENDRIX-like guitar driven moments to pastel / keyboard laden partsTo what comes the fourth kind of an interpretation, over at Staircase To The Day, is the brightness of the composition, the light-feather of the artistic value and the recognizable rock-pulse, within the sparks or the fusses, both present, both important, of the character. It steps down as the last of the mesmerizing, once, consumable, later, good prog band that was Gravy Train - in a more or less classic memory of (or about) it.
At a final point into the band's activity, Staircase To The Day is good, but misses referentiality (or some sterlingness) . And Gravy Train stays, thankfully by their first and best period, a classic progressive movement band, with reasonable virtues as to not be that obscure and second-handed.
