About Time

Description

About Time is the third full-length album by the British folk group Glorylanders, released in the UK on SECC Recordings in 1973. The album was recorded by Nic Kinsey at Livingston Studios in London; England. Mixed by Kinsey and John Preston.

Most of the songs on About Time follow the acoustic guitar format, with occasional appearances of piano, organ, drums, and yes, even some electric guitar on «Wasn’t That A Time». A number of charming gentler tracks on this one, including «Things Could Be Different» and the solemn minor-key «How Many Times». «Stop In That Moment Of Time» from the Alive! LP (co-written by Judy MacKenzie) is given a new jangly interpretation. A group of children sing along on a couple songs («Make It Known», «The Money Song»). Some fine acoustic guitar work decorating «All You Need». Simple strum-along fare this ain’t, so even if you tend to shy away from most acoustic recordings you’d do well to give these gents a listen.
