UK act SUNDAY was a trio consisting of Jimmy Forest (piano, organ, vocals), John Barclay (guitar, vocals) and Davy Patterson (vocals, bass). This Scottish act issued their one and only production in 1972, a self-titled effort. Other than that, little is known about this obscure outfit from the early 70's. "This is the only album from this band. Style wise, they are somewhere between Santana and Deep Purple. In short, funky rock with tons of Hammond organs and guitars. The first three Deep Purple albums are a pretty good reference, but their music is also as funky and lively as Santana. Quality wise, this is a good album. The long Hammond organ runs by Jimmy Forest is what makes this album a good album. They are underpinned by some good vocals, guitars, bass and drums. The songs are overall good with some flashes of superb melodies. The ten minutes long Sad Man Reaching Utopia is a great epic which changes between light and dark. The rest of the album is good though and I have grown to really be fond of it. This is a nice album for those who appreciate vintage rock."
