简介

Prog rock with Beatleish writing and produced by Alan Parsons. The best of both worlds. This album, and their next, 'Somewhere I've Never Travelled' are studies in how to make innovative and original music, without being enamored by overplaying or overly complex time signatures, etc. This band toured with Styx, and interestingly I find a lot of styles that made their way into Styx's music seemed to be previewed by this band. The songwriting is absolutely brilliant, the instruments are played with REAL emotion, the sounds are well chosen to suit the song. Only recently discovering this band's talent, I always knew this band for their radio hits, which were well-written but rather in the vein of adult contemporary. This album, in contrast, is real rock and roll (at times), with clear melodies, surprising lyrical depth, and jazzy-pop playing, and above all, a sense that they're having fun doing this and not taking it too seriously. The last song is one of the best, with a thundering pipe organ underscoring some fiery vocals that recall 'Sixty Years On' by Elton John.
