In the hot summer month of 1975 when Toward The Sun was released, Druid were a young band on a roll with the patronage of DJ Bob Harris (producer of the album) and British music paper the Melody Maker (whose competition they had recently won). Druid's debut album occupies the kind of AOR space that some of the major Prog bands would turn to during the late 70s. Laced with acoustic guitars, 'flutes' and lush keyboards, neatly wrapped in a Symphonic Prog overcoat of more adventurous instrumental passages. All instruments meld together quite naturally to produce a full and balanced sound, full of light and shade.
