For all the melodic wonders Terry Draper demonstrated with various ensembles, first and foremost proggers KLAATU, and on solo albums like "Lost" – and there have been a lot of platters with him on – pure pop is hardly associated with the veteran Ontarian. Still, the ’80s saw such a project, called SOCIAL STUDIES, in which Draper collaborated with British chanteuse Jacqueline Kroft, the two writing and performing together, and which didn’t seem to produce a record… Until now.
Last month was finally when the band’s entire output made it to the shelves – digital and physical – as a CD/DVD set titled “Atlantic Crossing” and comprised of eleven pieces, aural and visual, that reveal quite an unusual aspects of both artists’ talents. An unexpected yet ultimately welcome release.
