On this album, the band featured a different lineup that included two teenage prodigies, the violinist Eddie Jobson (who later found fame with UK and Roxy Music) and guitarist Kirby Gregory (who subsequently joined Stretch). These tracks show Curved Air maintained their dynamic and high standard of musicianship with a brand new line up.

Track List:

1. The Purple Speed Queen (1:32)
2. Elfin Boy (4:13)
3. Metamorphosis (10:38)
4. World (3:43)
5. Armin (3:42)
6. U.H.F. (5:07)
7. Two-Three-Two (4:10)
8. Easy (6:40)

Curved Air was a British progressive rock band and was formed in 1970 by Sonja Kristina (vocals), Darryl Way (violin), Francis Monkman (keyboards), Florian Pilkington-Miksa (drums). The group decided the name using a shortened version of Terry Riley’s composition “A rainbow in curved air”. In their first album “Air Conditioning”, a prominent role was given to vocals and violin; the album reached number 8 in the British charts. Then, in 1971, they released “Second Album”, highly recommended example of CURVED AIR sound (a mix of acoustic folk and progressive rock).
