SONG OF THE MARCHING CHILDREN / ATLANTIS

Excellent value: the two most important (and certainly most prog) albums of this leading Dutch group on one CD. Two suites of 16-18 minutes (the title songs of the two albums) and a number of interesting shorter songs. All in all, the first album is more impressive, especially in songs such as Ebbtide and Storm and thunder, and the instrumental In the mountain. The highlight of the second album is the hit single Maybe tomorrow maybe tonight, which shows off the vocal strengths of lead singer Jerney Kaagman. A bargain CD.
