Indigo (Pendragon) (LP 3476 - 3477)

Pendragon  Not Of This World (CD, Madfish Records, 2001) ****  

Pendragon  Pure (CD, InsideOut Records, 2008) ****  

Genre: Prog rock 

Places I remember: HMV, Fopp

Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: Indigo (Pure) - on YouTube

Gear costume: Eraserhead (Pure) - on YouTube

They loom large in his legend (The Album Collection playlists): Part 1; Part 2; Part 3; Part 4; Part 5

Active compensatory factors: Like Marillion and Almost Autumn, Pendragon have that classic, melodic, prog rock sound that I love so much. 

The band (which is still going) started in the late seventies and is comprised of: Nick Barrett – guitars, vocals, keyboards; Peter Gee – bass guitar, keyboards; Clive Nolan – keyboards, vocals; and Jan-Vincent Velazco – drums.

Not Of This World is album number 6 and Pure is album number 8. Not Of This World is a concept album, the ideas are beyond me, but the music is great.

Pure was widely regarded as their best album to this point. It's heavier than NOTW, without sacrificing their melodic strengths. 

Where do they all belong? Would certainly buy more of their albums if I came across them.
