Album

The Henry Cow Legend often referred to as Legend or Leg End is the debut album of British avant-rock group Henry Cow. It was recorded at Virgin Records' Manor studios over three weeks in May and June 1973, mixed in July 1973, and released in September 1973. With the exception of Nine Funerals of the Citizen King, which the whole group sings, and background voices on Nirvana for Mice Sweet mystery of life I will remember, Teenbeat and The Tenth Chaffinch, this is an instrumental album. Political astuteness aside, Henry Cow's Leg End is simply a busy musical trip, comprised of snaking rhythms, unorthodox time signatures, and incongruous waves of multiple instruments that actually culminate in some appealing yet complex progressive rock. Here, on the band's debut, both Fred Frith and woodwind man Geoff Leigh hold nothing back, creating eclectic, avant garde-styled jazz movements without any sense of direction, or so it may seem at first, but paying close attention to Henry Cow's musical wallowing results in some first-rate instrumental fusion, albeit a little to.

It is the HC album which most reminds you of Soft Machine of the Volume 2 and Third period, with its anglo jazz rock, but has less of the dissonancefree formavante jazz we have discovered on subsequent HC records - really the RIOtag was to come later. Henry Cow's debut album came out after they had been around in one form or another for about 5 years, so there was a lot of material to cherry pick for this album.

Schreiber Henry Cow's debut album Leg End aka Legend contains a lot of crap. However, the pair of groundbreaking Tim Hodgkinson compositions, Amygdala and Nine Funerals of the Citizen King, plus Fred Frith's Extract from 'With the Yellow Half-Moon and Blue Star' justify the purchase.
