Have you ever driven past one of those really old homes that looks like the local "haunted house", and wondered who might have lived there over the years? As kids we probably all knew of one of those homes and made up horror stories about them around the camp fire. At a more serious level it's been the storyline of countless movies… and now Guy Manning has written an album about a place he saw on the way to his Summers End gig.
So it's another Guy Manning concept piece, and once again, Manning's CD is more than just a collection of songs - he always produces music with a purpose - or at least, with a story. Bilston House doesn't have quite the singer / songwriter vibe that was prevalent in much of Manning's back catalog, yet neither is it the 'in-yer-face' progressive rock of his earlier albums. This one is more subtle, more rounded, perhaps, and definitely very progressive in its blend of '70s elements, modern third wave progressive rock, and occasional jazzy sections that add an element of sophistication.
The mood and the flowing arrangements run from angry through bleak, and from dark through bright. Along with Guy's elegant guitar work, Steve Dundon's flute and Laura Fowles's saxophone are again distinctive elements in Bilston House. There are many sections featuring long instrumentals played on an assortment of instruments including bouzouki, mandolins, and fiddle. Guy's vocals are not quite as Jethro Tull-like any more (although "Antares" might challenge that asertion), and there's more concentration on the instrumentals than before. This focus on instrumentals works well because Manning's vocal style is loved by many of his fans, but the appeal isn't universal.
Bilston House comprises 9 tracks spread over an hour and seven minutes, giving each song beween 6 and 10 minutes to develop itself into a richly layered, well constructed piece that will have broad appeal. Production - as always - is very good, and the cover art is noticeably different from Manning's recent CDs because Ed Unitsky did not illustrate the cover. The cover picture is moody and mysterious, and representative of the music within. At all levels, it's a high quality package.
