Riff-Raff - Riff-Raff

Fakten Released in 1972, Riff Raff is a bold statement from a British prog quartet exploring the intersection of rock and jazz-inflected textures. The album moves between blues-tinged grooves, melodic prog passages, and expansive jazzy-rock moments, all anchored by tight rhythms, expressive guitar, and organ flourishes. Standout tracks like the opener and La Même Chose show off the band’s adventurous spirit, balancing precision with spontaneity. Though the variety of songwriters gives the album a loose, exploratory feel, it remains a compelling and inventive record, a rare glimpse of a band pushing the boundaries of early-70s progressive rock.
