The Frost (1970) A Long Way From Home - LOST 70s GEMS

Dick Wagner's Frost and Ursa Minor were terrific early 70s rock groups dabbling in Prog hard rock; just listen to his fluid guitar lines at the start of this track reminding me of his work on that famous intro guitar dual for that 1974 live rendition of Lou Reed's Sweet Jane. Awesome cover art aside this song has an piano based tune, but it's his startling epic solo full of Bowie's Glam Rock grandeur. The album's title track, Through The Eyes Of Love (God Help Us Please), has a great refrain and some spooky guitar and organ based work, Black as Night is holy pomp rock sung with crisp power, while It's So Hard has creepy funky blues interplay between guitar and drums.
