The first thing I thought when I listened to this the first time was:
"That was it?"
I had already listened to plenty of ---'s other works such as ---, --- and ---. Comparatively, what a difference.
This album is bland in the worst way possible. It literally gives you nothing but a structureless and utterly boring and what-barely-counts-as ambiance. There is nothing to listen to here
It's rather badly recorded with obvious background noise. The chorus that shows up on --- and --- is just unpleasant to listen to, since it's been altered in a corny fashion to seem more 'ethereal'.
This is one of the first albums of its type made, but it's also one of the worst. There is absolutely no reason to listen to this because --- thankfully got really good at this later and released some amazing albums.
I cannot believe this is rated so high, especially since all of his other ambient releases are unmistakably more interesting. _________________ My top songs of the 2010s

X is a band that just doesn't do anything for me. I can't stand Y's voice and the lyrics are ridiculous. This album, despite being one of their most notable, isn't anywhere nearly as great as their fans will lead you to think. This is a pedestrian attempt at proggressive rock and X were never worthy of the kudos handed to them. You can get much more out of a Yes album, even a lesser one.
X needs to be forgotten now! Still haven't heard anything including this album to make me a fan although I have a few friends that love them.
The same as ELP. Too pompous and too boring! Another catastrophe record. My favorite X album is their first! (while they still were in the psych wagon), but Z is the most boring piece of uninspired music I have ever heard after ELP's Tarkus.
Not anyone can make compositions that last over 20 minutes and not to get bored. Only Mike Oldfield, Can, Soft Machine and Hawkind could do such thing!
Not the X I like.
The folk parts are interesting, the rock parts are alternately trite and obnoxious.

Solve for X = band, Y = frontman and Z = album.
X= Jethro Tull
Y= I don't remember the name 🫢
Z= Thick as a Brick
