"After recording two albums the band The Web strangely decided to change their name to Samurai. The band was led by singer/keyboardist Dave Lawson who would join Greenslade after Samurai broke up. The music captures that early British prog sound with strong leanings in the Canterbury direction due to the prominence of the brass playing of two members Tony Roberts and Don Fay. The quiet flute based parts sound like out takes from In The Land Of Grey And Pink. One of the great ones!"-Ken Golden
"Samurai is a masterclass in early 70s rock genre-blending, intricately weaving elements of avant-garde progressive rock, psychedelic influences, and jazz-rock innovation into a cohesive and captivating listening experience. The lineup includes the talented Dave Lawson, known for his later work with Greenslade, who serves as both the lead vocalist and keyboardist, alongside an ensemble of skilled musicians including Tony Edwards (electric and acoustic guitars), John Eaton (bass guitar), and percussionists Kenny Beveridge and Lennie Wright. They were an offshoot of the band Web, which had previously released three albums in a more jazzy blues rock vein."
