Inhalt

Later, he teamed up with the multi-instrumentalist Andy Clark. They both played a variety of instruments and this abundance of talent was brought to bear on the extraordinary two man album A=MH² which they recorded during two hectic 12 hours sessions in 1969 for release on the Nova label. Their first album release, A=MH² became an instant rock classic, peaking at No. 8 in the LP chart between Led Zeppelin II at No. 7 and Simon and Garfunkle¿s Bridge Over Troubled Water at No. 9. Consisting of just five extended pieces, these complex instrumentals enabled the two musicians to express their ideas in a variety of moods and grooves. The basis of their sound is built around Hutchinson's powerful neo-Eastern style guitar playing, which is given full rein on such tracks as the 13 minute raga epic 'Improvisation On An Indian Scale'. His guitar playing is also showcased in a different setting on the more relaxed, classical piece 'Acapulco Gold', while the pair attack a variety of instruments including, keyboards, saxes, flutes, bongos and bagpipes on 'Improvisation On A Modal Scale'. 'Impromptu In E Minor' and 'Textures In ¾' complete an extraordinary album packed with hypnotic themes. Regarded as a groundbreaking album in its day by John Peel, this set of rare performances sounds like nothing else I can call to mind. Thirty-something years later it still makes arresting listening.
