Jade Warrior
Last Autumn's Dream
Experimental fusion project Jade Warrior began in the early 70s when percussionist/flutist Jon Field and guitarist Tony Duhig joined forces with bassist Glyn Havard; Field and Duhig had been in Second Thoughts which later became July. By the time of Last Autumns Dream the group was a quintet with drummer Alan Price and Tonys younger brother David on lead guitar, allowing for denser explorations of the contrast between world music fusion and acid rock: Daves searing guitar leads jostle with eastern flute melodies, African rhythms and meditative folk motifs. Another fine piece of Jade Warriors evolution, ripe for rediscovery!
