Album Notes & Community Reviews

Operating out of Bristol, the heavily instrumental ensemble Skywhale delivered their sole studio album to critical acclaim within the underground scene. 'The World at Mind鈥檚 End' seamlessly integrates the soaring, synthesizer-driven grandeur of symphonic prog with the knotty, flute-accented rhythms of Canterbury-inspired jazz-rock. It stands as a brilliant, multifaceted gem of late 70s British progressive fusion.
