"When I was hanging out at the Fillmore Auditorium in 1967, I thought I was at the center of the musical Universe; many have agreed. Well, we overestimated. "Polyandry" continues the lesson I keep learning: the grandeur of Dutch bands of the Sixties, as represented by Q5, the Outsiders and Group 1850. "Polyandry" reflects the musical maturation of Group 1850; this is not the second coming of the classic "Agemo's Trip To Mother Age"; this is an almost instrumental Trip, with muttered Dutch and plenty of saxophones. If you listen closely you can hear Laika and the Cosmonauts, and the Mermen.
