7 Months - 7 Months

This lot produce AOR-tinged prog in the manner of Saga and Kansas at their most mainstream. It is decent but not for everyone. 7 Months were named for the time it took them to complete this 9 track CD. The more accesible tracks are 'You & Me' and 'Stay', but being a prog album there is an 8 minute track with the preposterous title of 'Senorita Serenade'. With two of its members having attended the Musicians Institute, you know it is going to be pretty muso in the end. If you like Saga then there is a pretty safe bet you will like this. It will be interesting to see if they can manage something a bit more special next time round.
