Delta Flora" is the third release from the band HUGHSCORE, with the legendary Hugh Hopper on bass, known from SOFT MACHINE. The music is atmospheric, experimental, floating, well performed and constantly changing with many instrumental passages. Some of the tracks are instrumental while some have beautiful vocals by Elaine di Falco. A typical 90's contemporary acid-jazz album, Delta Flora was Hughscore's final chapter, and a very worthy one. Personally progheads should prefer investigating Hughscore's rather short catalogue rather than some higher-profile acid-jazz artiste to discover the mid to later-90's jazz soundscape in vogue at the time.

In addition to the great playing that you would expect, the biggest pleasure about this release is the really rich pieces composed by Hugh &. Includes unlimited streaming via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more. Purchasable with gift card.
Delta Flora is by far Hugh's greatest work with Hughscore. This album/CD was overlooked by many prog rock people for a long time. Musically intellegent, this band does a space stretch and gives the recording depth and intensity. It takes several listens to feel and hear the magic of this period for Hughscore. It has some classic prog rock sounds with Elaine di Falco reminding me of Barb Gaskin (Hatfield and the North) in a way, yet still distinctively her own voice
