Esperanto - Rock Orchestra (1973). Songs in album Esperanto - Rock Orchestra (1973).
Only for completionists (0%). This is the debut album from Esperanto even though I first knew the band from their third album "Last Tango". Specifically I was impressed with the band's interpretation and rearrangement of The Beatles "Eleanor Rigby". I have never been a big fan of The Beatles but of course I knew some of their songs.
This is a rock orchestra. Esperanto will get into your body and do good things for your soul. Advertisement in Rolling Stones magazine (June 7, 1973, page 45). The Story of Esperanto by Gilles Arend, Prog-résiste, translated by Diane and Bruno Libert as presented in the liner notes of the Si-Wan CD releases.
Even those unfamiliar with Esperanto Rock Orchestra will likely find something strangely familiar with their sound, although exactly what that is may be difficult to pinpoint. CD reissues of this album include three bonus tracks. Getting Along" is a funky dance number, while "Waiting Till the Day" is pure soft-rock with some proggy accoutrements and more extended organ breaks than appeared anywhere on the original record.
