5 out of 5 stars Basically a heavier and more aggressive Julian's Treatment.......2007-05-12

In 1970, author Julian Jay Savarin was heading an early prog/psych band called Julian's Treatment and released an album called A Time Before This. But the band broke up with vocalist Cathy Pruden apparently returning to her native Australia. He decided to record that followup album under his own name, with ex-Catapilla vocalist Jo Meek (sister of Anna Meek, who replaced her sister in Catapilla, and it was obviously with Anna that Catapilla recorded their two albums). The album was Waiters on the Dance, released on the Birth label. I've seen varying sources say 1969, 1971 or 1973, but 1969 is very doubtful, since the reason for Jo Meek's departure from Catapilla was to play for Julian Jay Savarin. 1971 sounds about right, although there's that possibility the album's release was delayed.

Well, I have to say this is like a more heavy and aggressive version of Julian's Treatment, with more aggressive guitars upfront, and Jo Meek sounding like a more aggressive version of Cathy Pruden (or Annie Haslam). Julian Jay Savarin still uses that same cosmic organ as Julian's Treatment, this time around he includes some Mellotron on some of the cuts. I really love the direction he went for this album. It's too bad he didn't continue with music any further, he decided to focus on writing science fiction novels instead, because this is truly one of the great obscure gems of progressive rock!
