Ambrosia started their recording career as a full blown progressive rock band, based in Southern California, but harnessing a sound that was inextricably linked with early 70s British prog rockers. By the eighties the group had morphed into a hugely successful AOR unit, enjoying hit singles and mainstream media exposure very much in the breezy but precise style of Toto, Player and Steely Dan. Of course, the icing on the cake was vocalist David Pack, a man whose voice has been compared to such masters of the art as Bobby Kimball, Michael McDonald and Steve Perry. Road Island , originally issued in 1982, was Ambrosia's fifth album and in many ways saw them returning to their progressive roots composing songs blessed with ambitious arrangements. This stylistic volt-face was in part emphasised by their choice of producer, Pink Floyd engineer James Gutherie, with recording partly undertaken in London's famed Kinks owned Konk Studios. In addition, the album artwork's illustrative calligraphy (undertaken by Ralph Steadman - one time illustrator of satirical publication Private Eye) was somewhat reminiscent of Pink Floyd's The Wall , further emphasising their progressive rock roots. Musically brilliant, the album contains lashings of intelligently conceived tracks, such as For Openers (Welcome Home) and the seven minute quasi-prog epic Ice Age . Other more traditional sounding melodic rock tracks included Still Not Satisfied and the Fleetwood Mac reminiscent How Can You Love Me - two of the band's finest compositions.
