about

Two Rainbows Daily is a reissue of a long out of print classic from 1980 from these two fine composers and insrumentalists (keyboards and bass). While rich in sound due to overdubs, this doesn't have a full band sound, and this rather stripped-down approach makes for a "intimate" release filled with crafty melodies and subtle tonal colors. Mastered directly off the master tapes it sounds terrific; finally! No vinyl crackle! As a bonus there is 20' of extra live material. Absolutely a "Canterbury" classic.

“...the coming together of two British jazz-rock giants. ...These gracefully introspective instrumentals feature Gowen's trademark flowing analog synth and Hopper's unique high-register bass work in equal measure.”
– muze.com

“...showcases harmonic and compositional sensitivity....”
– Revue & Corrigee

What a range of virtuosity and invention! There's delicate, exquisite beauty; intense, dark moods; complex, intricate explorations; warmth and contrasting sparse exposure. I've picked "Pump Room" purely because it reminded me on hearing (without even seeing the name!) of Jeff Beck's "The Pump" :). Peter Jones
