Isles of Langerhan

Isles of Langerhan is the second and final album by The Late Bronze Age, a collaboration between musicians Bruce Hampton and Billy McPherson.

[4] Cover art is credited to James Flournoy Holmes, and is based on the artist's "vision of having a girl throw water in the air and catching it on film.

"[6] In an AllMusic review of the original LP release, Jesse Jarnow wrote: "Hampton's bizarre proclamations are translated into flaming fusion runs...

"[8] Robert Palmer, writing for The New York Times, stated that, in comparison with the band's debut album Outside Looking Out, the music on Isles of Langerhan is "tighter and punchier... with the players' rhythm-and-blues roots attractively exposed," while the lyrics "take a long, amused look at social rituals."

Palmer praised the playing as "intricate and knotty... with Mr. Thornton's snaking guitar lines and jazzy saxophone taking dominant roles.
