Yet another one-man band beats the path to Progressive Rock Hall of Fame. Oh wait, is this guy just playing the music he wants to play?

Honestly, I didn't even know this is actually one-man band (and guest vocals) effort, that happened only when I checked the credits. What do we have here? Extremely POLISH Neo-Prog, soft and melodic, with tasteful COLLAGE-like arrangements and CAMELish guitar solos. The whole work is very much CAMEL- influenced, though I won't dare to call it 'a clone' or 'a rip-off', it's just clearly shows roots for inspiration in this case. If you're into melodic solo-guitar-driven Neo-Prog (French MIRAGE and Spanish DRACMA spring to mind too), check this one out, you won't regret. Recommended
