Ashkan's In from the Cold was the first album released on Decca's progressive Nova label.
Co-produced by Peter Sherter and Ian Sippin, much of the album bares an uncanny
resemblance to early Spooky Tooth. Propelled by Bailey's hoarse vocal
growl and the band's penchant for screaming guitars, this comparison is
reinforced on tracks such as "Going Home", "Take These Chains" and "Out Of Us
Two". Elsewhere, Bailey sounds like Joe Cocker on "Practically Never
Happens", while Bob Weston's "Slightly Country" sounds like it was stolen from
the early Steve Winwood and Traffic catalogue. With the exception of the
pedestrian blues number, "Backlash Blues", but including the extended "Darkness",
the album, is worth hearing. "Practically Never Happens" got a further airing on
Broken Dreams, Vol. 6 (LP).
