"Released to widespread indifference back in January 1970, Manchester band Pacific Drift’s album Feelin’ Free surely deserved a better fate. A sparkling, West Coast-influenced amalgam of post-psychedelic pop and early progressive rock, skilfully weaving wistful hippie laments and riff-laden rockers into a fully cohesive whole, it didn’t really attract any kind of attention until the Great Prog Rock Stampede of the late Eighties, when albums that couldn’t be given away when first released suddenly began to change hands for significant sums of money."...

ALO (listen for the music)

"There is no instrumental with scat singing on the world rock scene that is close to this. This kind of vocal performance is pure genius. These vocal commanding tones of the guitar, then the endings and all the other flexibility up to the high notes are an unsurpassed alternation in the rhythm of this perfection. And Zoran's bass is just a special story. A band that deserves years of research into every tone of every instrument in order to see and understand unity. That is SMAK. Love without borders."
