SamuelPear 1 hour agoI thought I was going to be bored but what a surprise, this album is full of beautiful melodies and the free jazz part was nice and sweet to hear. Bravo !
IrishMusichead 05/17/2013 20:48Much more thematic then I had expected. Almost a calming and sullen listen, and that feeling is appeasing. My only criticism is 21st Century Schizoid Man - don't be mad it's a bloody brilliant song - it just feels a little out of place when compared with the rest of the album.
Very good tracks and merging of tracks is very unique.
antiloopje 04/11/2013 11:32Some days, I just can't stop thinking: "Why do I listen to anything else?". I mean, isn't this near perfect? Can it get much better? At least it's the best I've heard.
tbakemanI thoroughly enjoyed it more than I was expecting, and what a sweet cover! I'll give it a few more listens and then give a proper review
Pete Townshend called it the "most important album since SgtPepper's...". Prog-rock starts here, doesn't it? Though "A salty Dog" by Procol Harum, released a few months before, came damn close.
"In the court..." is just... perfect to me.
Truly ahead of its time, extremely influential.
An absolutely essential progressive rock album. Beautifully poetic with larger-than-life melodies, especially in the closing track.
"I Talk To The Wind" is probably my favorite in here, and a very, very underrated track. Really great album overall-emotional, poetic, boldly experimental and also beautiful.
