Paice Ashton Lord (1977) Ghost Story - LOST 70s GEMS

From their Malice in Wonderland album, this post Deep Purple project was an odd mix of talents with Tony Ashton teaming up with Deep Purple's longstanding talent in a funky supergroup. Standout tune Ghost Story features the reverse echoed and panning techniques of a cutting edge production, shame aside form the unrepentant major riff played by a organ and bass in unison of a a straightforward guitar is the only thing that sticks out. The disco chords of the chorus again shows its dated nature, while the hard rock turnarounds and Paice's speed drumming don't mix with the sensual funky horns and guitars, but oh well its mildy enjoyable to see the Deep Purple embers venturing out of their usual classic and Metal genres.
