in #jazz4 years ago (edited)

"Of Queues and Cures" (released in 1978) is the name of the British band's second studio album, National Health. Considered a super band, faithful representative of the sounds of the canterbury scene, where we can appreciate and enjoy melodies and rhythms taken from jazz fusion, rock and avant-garde music ... =)
