Anyone familiar with the Mad Men and English Dogs album? If not...it reaches well beyond Nigel Glockler's usual gig as drummer of Saxon. With fellow Saxon Doug Scarratt on guitar, this instrumental music visits some proggy realms as in the mellotron-infused "Snow-capped," the majestic "Pomporwot," and the Camel-referenced "One Hump or Two." Glockler writes quite a bit on keyboards and is among relatively few drummers who express pleasing chord movement. The resulting album is varied and often quite tasteful, with some fun nods toward metal territory (bangers or sausages?).
