Cargo-Cargo (1972)

Cargo were a fleeting Dutch heavy prog band, who only recorded one album published in 1972, which is full of overwhelming and dynamic sounds that, by way of guitar jams, is another of those amazing lost and dark albums from the 70's.
This band arose from the ashes of another Dutch band called September, which had released several unsuccessful singles in the early 70's and would later change their name to Cargo. Their lineup consisted of brothers Ad and Jan de Hont, both guitarists, bassist Willem DeVires, and drummer Denis Whitbread.
This unique work contains four extensive cuts where the guitar lines are intermingled with frenetic guitar duos in unison in the purest style of the British Wishbone Ash.
Due to the long duration of the four tracks, there is enough room for improvisation with powerful riffs, acid sounds, solos of all kinds and a mind-blowing electric jam style, all infused with melodic vocals.
The initial "Cross Talking" as its title implies, is a formidable theme of incredibly executed dual guitars and a powerful rhythm section that perfectly supports the feeling that it is played live. "Summerfair" is a fifteen minute tour de force with relaxing sounds, lots of improvisation and sweeping psychedelic sounds. While "Sail Inside", it begins with a powerful hard rock that ends in another instrumental jam.
However, and despite the fact that they had a good impact on the part of the critics, the album would go unnoticed due to the scarce promotional support from their record company, being relegated to the most absolute ostracism, which is why the band would disappear at the end of 1972, but leaving For posterity, another essential album in the history of European progressive rock of the 1970s.
