5 stars One of Wakemans most brilliant recordings, in the line of Journey To The Centre Of The Earth", opening with narration of the Pharao Of Alexandria in the voice of the fantastic Garfield Morgan. The piece moves on to an ouverture with a profusion on beautifully played keyboards, progressive rock when its at its best. High energy and well constructed harmony. Colosses Of Rhodes mellows a bit, just a bit and the comes Pyramids Of Egypt. Played in the same energy level a Pharao Of Alexandria, Prog lovers are in for a real treat here. Perfect programming of presets and tuning. The record ends with Mausoleum Of Halicarnassus with the same grandeur as the opening ouverture. Another "Must Have" Wakeman album.
