The Polite Force (1972)
Uttelry BRILLIANT stuff! I mean, how could you not love the bizarre and HILARIOUS "Contrasong" with it's off-kilter brass arrangement, alternating 5/8 and 9/8 time signatures and bassist Mont Campbell's deadpan vocal delivery. "A Visit to Newport Hospital" recounts the band's experiences in its "Uriel" incarnation with more deadpan vocals and funny lyrics. Egg however were no jokesters when it came to their musicianship. Dave Stewart was really coming into his own with a distinct keyboard style (chiefly Hammond organ), Mont Campbell was deveoping serious compositional ability along with his solid bass work (and playing some French Horn to boot) and Clive Brooks propelling things along in rock solid fashion. "Long Piece #3" shows them developing their compostional chops in very interesting ways, while "Boilk" shows their bravery (and/or sheer craziness) in producing a piece of what might be termed "Musique Concrete" (or organized sound), throwing in everything and LITERALLY including the kitchen sink at the beginning. Definitely not for fans of easy, safe inoffensive pop, but for those who love their experimentalism with LOTS of droll British humor, it's a treasure trove, DIG IN!!!Link: http://lix.in/0867e3Egg-The Civil Surface(1974)
