Jane - Here We Are (1973)

 Here We Are finds Jane further refining their blend of space rock, hard rock, and symphonic elements. Expanding on the atmospheric and hypnotic qualities of their debut, the album features soaring guitar melodies, deep organ textures, and slow-burning instrumental passages that create a rich, immersive sound. The album is beautifully recorded, lush, warm, and thoroughly enjoyable, end to end. Love the front cover on this one too! Totally fits the sounds contained within.

Original 1973 German pressing from Metronome/Brain. Landed this lovely copy at a place called Amstel Antiques  & Records while in Amsterdam a few years back. So good. …I had to go all the way to DailyMotion to find a link to the entirety of this album. Preset filters on media platforms may prevent racial slurs and socially objectionable song titles, but they are short on factoring context as said tune is very much pro-indigenous Americans. This timeline is a dystopian bummer.
