“When I wrote all this material, I had no pre-conceived ideas as I was a starry-eyed teenager who had not yet been battered by the music business for 30 years.”
Rob Reed
Rob Reed has enjoyed an extremely productive 18 months. On top of releasing a seemingly continuous stream of contrasting albums under his myriad musical banners, the Welsh prog workaholic has also embarked on a long trip down Memory Lane. This was to revisit his school days when the first ever songs for his band Cyan were partly composed on the sixth-form piano. Those teenage compositions later became For King And Country, Cyan’s 1993 debut album, which, by then, had become a solo venture.
Almost 30 years on, he’s completely reworked the album and turned it back into a band project. With Reed are prog luminaries albums.
