*. Pat Cool .* (Album + Ep)

Album: Daybreak (1973)
EP: The Sun King Found His Kingdom Here & Never Get Lost (1973)
Genre: Prog Rock (Jazz/Soul/Folk)  /  Netherlands

Daybreak: Pat Cool play in a slightly jazz influenced progressive rock and are very much from the Dutch school. But a quote from an online Dutch Encyclopedia  "and the voice of Gé Titulaer is very prominent also" would have to rank as one of the all-time great understatements. It's quite apparent to me that he was trying very hard to emulate one Tom Jones - and well... hmmm.... maybe not the most successful try out there. So I'll offer another great understatement: His voice is an acquired taste. And scary to say, I think I'm falling into that camp. So, in the end, a very solid Dutch progressive rock album, with pop and jazz overtones - and an overbearing voice. Sound good? Probably not. But it is strangely enough.
