Fairyland has long been a favorite amid fans of Larry Coryell's jazz-rock days. The stripped-down trio format allows Coryell enough of solo space. He genuinely sings quite effectively on the get-go 2 tracks, merely to a greater extent than effective are the torrents of 18th notes, mutated blues licks, together with avant-garde audio textures that emanate from his guitar. "Further Explorations for Albert Stinson" is a afterward incarnation of "The Jam With Albert," which is a staple of Coryell jazz-rock compilations. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 rewarding listen. All Music.

This is ability trio doing jazz fusion. It is what Cream would audio similar if it played fusion. There are the solos together with musical runs similar to Live Cream (but inwards a jazz fashion). There is every bit good unopen to real dainty distorted guitar.
