The band Sky would appeal to those who enjoy the instrumental works of the Alan Parsons Project, early symphonic period of Mike Oldfield and '80s Camel. The first album ("Sky", 1979) have some well-known classical pieces, the best of them Satie's haunting 'Gymnopedie', but the highlights of Sky's oeuvre were always their original music, and here Francis Monkman was front and centre. The astonishing 'Where Opposites Meet' is essential listening, to see what can be done with a combination of classical and contemporary stringed instruments. 'Westway' is the album's other highlight, a piece that nails their colours to the mast immediately: here we get splendid bass lines overlaid with playful acoustic guitar and harpsichord, underpinned by a driving beat. An excellent debut release.

Sky's second and most important release ("Sky 2", 1980), sold extremely well in the UK in 1980, becoming that year's tenth highest selling album. That may, in fact, make it the year's biggest selling progressive rock album. Like most music based on older compositions and ancient instrumentation, Sky's material has aged pretty well and, while it possesses some kinship with the new age music that permeated adult consciousness some years later, it also contains a lot more virtuosity and can be appreciated even by serious students of the masters. Largely and unjustly forgotten now, Sky 2 was an important album for keeping serious rock music alive.
