"Peace Today"
begins the festivities right out of the gate, with a multi-layered triple
harmony via Beatles era-Abbey Road, co-mingled with a fine percussive
groove in the pocket It becomes apparent
to us that, Mr. Cambed has a unique ability to deliver a wealth of imaginative
compositions, with full diversity at will Claude is an
artist that one cannot label to any extent. Even the arrangements & production
have trace echos of Mr. Cambed's root inspirations ; Yet he's completely
original in his audio-explorations sublimely In "Wrong Address-(part
2) , we're treated to a sonic slice of Beatles era-White album ; Almost
irreverently, Claude's music in a positive manner, seems as if to have
the innate character of seamless talent, in any direction that he chooses
to focus upon "Rock Oil Men"
is yet another example of Claude Cambed's idiosyncrasy, somewhat reminiscent
of Beatles era-{Yellow Submarine's}-[Hey Bulldog] In other words,
Mr. Cambed's stylism is a plethora of well done musical homework, that
transcends the work in a cathartic explosion of creativity & taste ; Some
of the flavors are a phantasmagoric trip to consume into the senses "The Other Side
Of Mars" is a telling shadow of Sid Barrett era-early Pink Floyd ; Whereas
"Apple" for instance, conjures up audio-reflections of "Magical Mystery
Tour"-Beatles In "Lost My
Baby Child-(part 2) , another wave of chromatically pleasing chord configurations,
leads one to ponder a song that to a certain degree" has a "Sgt. Pepper"
like quality to it In summation,
the body of sound paintings that Claude Cambed brews up, is a mystical
master-mix of creativity unleashed upon the audiophile's ear ;
As to astound the mediocre efforts of others who care only to sample compositions,
to imitate, or to bring spoken word over the music All of this
banter however, has nothing to do with "A Nice Afternoon In The Colony"
Perhaps a Ray
Davies could see the kink in the presentation. Perhaps the more bold should
simply sample the sonic-atmosphere of Claude Cambed's work. It can only
enrich the experience & baffle the uninitiated |

Claude
Cambed's "A Nice Afternoon in The Colony", is a work of enigmatic music,
traveling at the speed of sound. The self titled tune itself, offers an
amazing array of progressive Pop Rock cerebral content unlike any other
