Â Throughout the 70s and 80s, Englands Barclay James Harvest were one of prog
rocks most enduring acts, releasing a steady string of well-crafted albums for
Harvest Records and Polydor while never quite breaking through to the mainstream
success enjoyed by similar acts such as the Moody Blues, Jethro Tull, and Pink
Floyd. Their strong harmonies, sparkling keyboard work, and quality songcraft
were best emphasized on their mellower ballads, which became one of the groups
hallmarks over the years. Following their split with Harvest Records in 1973,
they signed a long contract with Polydor, a relationship that lasted almost two
decades. Covered here on Universals two-disc set Child of the Universe: The
Essential Collection are highlights from the groups expansive Polydor catalog,
culling tracks from 1974s Everyone Is Everybody Else all the way through 1990s
Welcome to the Show. Its a well-curated anthology representing the most active
portion of BJHs long career, consisting largely of studio material along with
two songs from their Harvest era (She Said and Mockingbird), which appear as
live renditions on the first disc. The Essential Collection is a solid
introduction to a band that has made a lasting, if understated, impact in
British rock history.
