OF MY OWN PRIVATE COLLECTION
Eduardo Bort's self-titled album from 1975 contains four long tracks of spacey, melodic progressive rock with several longer acoustic/folky passages as well. The first track "Thoughts" reminds me a bit of the 70's Italian bands (especially the better parts on the Uno album). "Pictures of Sadness" has some great mellotron and excellent spacey guitar playing. Bort' s guitar playing reminds me both of Jimi Hendrix and Steve Hillage. By far the weakest point are the vocals. The flat, heavily accented singing is rather poor, but it doesn't spoil the album for me. The last, 12-minute track "Yann" starts with incredible mellotron/guitar/mini-moog interplay. This section could have been culled from Steve Hillage's masterpiece Fish rising. Superb. After about four minutes, part two of the track starts in a more acoustic setting, unfortunately with the worst of the vocal contributions. About two minutes later an instrumental section follows with nice guitar strumming and soloing by Bort. At about nine minutes, the mellotron re-enters with a romantic symphonic theme (and variations) until the track ends. Not a flawless album, but despite the weak vocals an enjoyable piece of work with occasionally some outstanding passages.
"Eduardo Bort" contiene cuatro temas largos de rock espacial, melódico progresivo con varios pasajes acústicos folk. El primero, "Pensamientos", recuerda un poco a las bandas italianas de los 70 (sobre todo las mejores partes). "Cuadros de Tristeza" tiene algunos pasajes de mellotron y guitarra espacial excelentes. La guitarra de Bort guitarra recuerda tanto a Jimi Hendrix como a Steve Hillage. De lejos, lo más flojo son las voces. Son pobres y planas pero no echan a perder el álbum. El último, tema de 12 minutos "Yann" tiene momentos increíbles. Esta sección se podía haber escogido de la obra maestra de Steve Hillage "Fish Raising". Magnífico. Después de aproximadamente cuatro minutos, la segunda parte del tema comienza con una escena más acústica, desgraciadamente con la peor de las contribuciones vocales. Aproximadamente dos minutos más tarde una sección del instrumental sigue con una buena guitarra. Y más mellotron Que entra de nuevo con un tema romántico sinfónico (y variaciones) hasta que acaba.
