Album Notes & Community Reviews

The third and final album from the British ensemble masterfully bridges the gap between complex progressive rock suites and highly accessible, harmony-driven pop-rock. Drawing frequent comparisons to the melodic sensibility of Crosby, Stills & Nash alongside the structural ambition of Genesis, the recording balances intricate acoustic guitars with tight electric passages. Though highly accomplished, the group disbanded shortly after the album's release, rendering it a celebrated rarity of the era.
