Spooky Tooth - Witness (1973)

The sixth album from this band from Great Britain.

The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.

The band had released another album the same year called You Broke My Heart So I Busted Your Jaw and that album was an artistic disaster with it's mishmash of most genres. The songs there was poor and so was the choice of a female vocalist.

So, back to the drawing room, then. And back to the studio for another album. 

The music on Witness sees the return to blues rock again. There are also some more folk rock here as the music is firmly rooted in the British rock scene anno 1973. 

Mike Harrison is thankfully back on the vocals too and his vocals is good. 

The songs are rather uncomplicated rock and blues rock songs. The sound is good and the quality is decent enough.

This album is an improvement on their previous album, the above mentioned album. It is an album well worth checking out.
