Starcastle - Starcastle (1976)





I first heard selections from Starcastle's debut album, including the entrancing 'Lady Of The Lake', on a shortwave VOA broadcast in the late '70s. The band's smoother-than-Yes sound — grand vocal harmonies, flavorsome Moog runs, skirling, sweetly sustained guitar solos — intrigued me, but I never really got around to listening to the album in its entirety. Thanks to some free-giving soul, I can finally enjoy this undervalued prog-rock showcase in full.
