HELIX by Legacy Pilots

Like its predecessors, "Helix" also offers an enormous bandwidth without forgetting its roots of progressive rock.
Especially the "Response-Suite", with over 17 minutes the longest piece on the album, should be mentioned here.
Or also the three-part "Exploring my DNA" which revives the golden years of progressive rock.
"Helix" offers a wealth of musical ideas. Which you probably can expect, when artists like Todd Sucherman, Marco Minnemann, Pete Trewavas, John Mitchell, Steven Rothery, Jake Livgren, Finally George, Lars Slowak and others working together.
With their latest work, a single run thru won’t make any sense - there is simply too much to discover when listening again and again.
Highly recommended to fans of ELP, Yes, Kansas and the Like. Or to people who simply love great music.
If you have liked “The Penrose Triangle”, you will dig “Helix” as much.

Many thanks to Todd, Marco, Pete, Jake, John, Steve & Carsten for their incredible contributions to this album.
Greetings to Bill, Konstanze and Clemens.
Special thanks to my best friends Georg & Lars.
Love to my family, a life without you is unimaginable.

What was meant to be a one off is now experiencing its fourth album.
It's just too much fun to work with these exceptional musicians. And also the response to our music has grown in recent years, for which I am of course very grateful.
And so I also hope that this new music will bring as much joy to all listeners as it was fun for us to make this album.

Peace and love to you all,
Frank
