Omschrijving
Northwind were a 1970/71 band from Glasgow formerly known as Power of Music. Rock music was changing
then and this lot were well into the melodic rock that was coming into vogue at that time. Main feature was
the twin Les Paul gold tops used by their guitar players.
Their 1971 Brothers, Sisters, Love is a highly rated rural progressive-rock. Since its first reissue back in 1994
it has been one of the favourites of collectors of the label. Now re-mastered, it includes 2 rare bonus tracks.
The band's sound has been likened to that of the twin lead guitar style of early Wishbone Ash with refined
vocals. The songs are spiced with tasteful organ/piano and additional percussion throughout. Of the many
stand-out tracks Quill, a loose-chugging, exquisite Osibisa-style rocker, is a minor classic.
