Only for completionists (0%). A bit f a disappointment, really. At the close of the stylish booklet accompanying the CD, Martin Orford openly admits that "The Old Road" is not a progressive rock album, being instead 'unashamedly retro'. In a world where blatant rip-offs are often touted as wildly innovative, such an admission is refreshingly honest, to say the least.

Martin Orford (born 10 June 1959, Bitterne, Southampton) is an English keyboard player best known as the founder of progressive rock bands IQ and Jadis. He also worked with former King Crimson, UK and Asia bassist John Wetton, and has released two solo albums, Classical Music and Popular Songs (2000) and The Old Road (2008). Orford appeared on two Big Big Train albums, Goodbye To The Age of Steam and English Boy Wonders.

So Martin Orford throws in the towel, and only in a few years everybody will realize what the music scene has lost with his departure. As if he wants to prove that to all, he releases a final album under his name. For that purpose he gathered several well known musicians who make this an almost all-star-project: Nick D’Virgilio of Spock’s Beard, Gary Chandler of Jadis, Steve Thorne and John Wetton of Asia and King Crimson fame. But the highlight of The Old Road is the title track. With over eight minutes, it still is over much too soon. The melange of bombast, melancholy, but also Rock deserves nothing less but the attrtibute ‘brilliant. Has Orford composed his finest song at the very end of his career?

This song is by Martin Orford and appears on the album The Old Road (2008). They say the best is yet to comeBut I can't be the only oneTo seek out ways from days gone byTo shape the way we live our lives. That's why we're taking the old roadTo rediscover things we'd taken for grantedLosing the heavy loadTry to make the most of every dayWe're taking the old roadBack to where the seeds of wisdom were plantedLeaving the race foreverAnd reject the modern way.
