In 1992 keyboard player Michael West released his solo album "God Sex Money", produced by Bill Berends from USA 'power-progrock' band MASTERMIND. Two years later that collaboration between Bill and Michael led to the production and release from the eponymous debut CD by BLACK SEPTEMBER.
BLACK SEPTEMBER their music is often bombastic featuring dazzling keyboard work (with strong echoes from KEITH EMERSON and RICK WAKEMAN but modern sounding), a dynamic and propulsive rhythm-section, swirling violin play and some fiery saxophone.
BLACK SEPTEMBER is an interesting one shot USA band that has delivered a fine album for the keyboard aficionados but the music also features strong work on violin and saxophone. ~progarchives.com
