Panet End is a compilation of previously unreleased material from sessions from the albums " Spaces "
(1970) and " Introducing Larry Coryell and The Eleventh House" (1974). But this is anything but a collection of unreleased b sides my friends....instead this is a fantastic self contained album that stands on its own. Two epic tracks and the addition of Billy Cobham, Chick Corea and John McLaughlin on a few tracks making this a nice LP to own.Musically this is jazz fusion rock with a nice psychedelic vibe throughout. Lots of acid drenched guitar work with McLaughlin and Coryell going for it . The 12 mins track "Tyrone" is simply superb and defines what fusion should sound like. In many ways the song actually carries a progressive rock feel with some crazy drumming of Cobham.
Oh yeah and in the spirit of classic band YES and Steve Howe, Coyell plays an acoustic guitar track called "The Eyes of Love" which clicks in about 3:21 mins and is very reminiscent of the prog era Yes .
Originally released on Vanguard records in 1974 this album is a treasure chest for Fusion music lovers.
