Midnight Mushrumps' bridges the gap between the folk of their first album and the jazzy prog of their forthcoming albums. Its centerpiece seems to be the title track, a 19- minute excursion that never seems to get off the ground completely. Most parts are delicately presented, dynamics on a pretty even keel, everything generally quite mellow.

The group was still doing some folk-type vocal numbers on this, their second album, but it was clearly moving in the direction of progressive rock. The 18-minute title track by Richard Harvey took up one whole side of the original LP, and incorporated medieval, baroque, and classical-era influences in its structure.

However, Gryphon's second album, Midnight Mushrumps, is their finest hour, consolidating and extending the band's captivating soundworld. The title track, originally conceived as a ballet by composer Richard Harvey, is a 19-minute suite of breathtaking musical boldness and well worth the price of this two-album disc alone. Post-Gryphon, Harvey went on to compose film scores and other orchestral music, including a guitar concerto for John Williams)
