SWEET
SMOKE were a 70’s Progressive Rock band who spent more time in Europe
than in the Continental US. Along the way they managed to bump into
Conny Plank who Co- engineered this album with Klaus Lohmer. SWEET SMOKE
combine fusion jazz elements (aka Miles Davis) with German Krautrock
elements and with the addition of flute and sax gives a Canterbury feel
as well. Vocals are present and quite psychedelic sounding actually at
times with some banter and chanting going on. This album is essentially 2
long epic tracks oscillating between blues, jazz, rock, funk and
psychedelia. Band was Andrew Dershin (bass), Jay Dorfman (drums and
percussion), Marvin Kaminowitz (solo guitar, vocals), Michael Paris
(Tenor sax, alto recorder, vocals, percussion), Steve Rosenstein (rhythm
guitar, vocals). With the length of the 2 tracks there is lots of room
for exploration and an almost improvised feel to the movements. On track
2 “Baby Night” there is a simply killer percussion solo which sounds
like solar drums and will absolutely blow your mind. This is truly
awesome music and is heavily recommended to lovers of prog-psych rock.
