Ziggurat - Ziggurat (1979)

Rounding out Ziggurat's recorded output, here is the band's self-titled debut issued in 1979. With a smoother and more laid back approach than what can be found on the band's final album, "Ziggurat" is closer to Firefall/Couchois territory than anything else. The west coast sound is deceptive, considering the band's southern roots. Overall, the album is lacking personality, as each track casually passes by with nary a powerful hook demanding your attention. There's nothing here terribly off-putting, but there's nothing here that stands out either. Perhaps this is to blame for Ziggurat's lack of fortune, but there is surely an audience for this kind of easy listening AOR. Whether it's your cup of tea is up in the air, so be sure to snag this one for a preview. Enjoy this great transfer courtesy of 'daz'.
