4 stars Now lets go for the 1, starting with the title track "going for the one", a good guitar riff in the introduction, and an excellent song but, becomes repetitive at the end and its a thing I don't like in music. "Turn of century" an ethereal ballad; I guess all this record is a bit ethereal, very well constructed, with complex arrangements, this song is very nostalgic to me. "Parallels" has a powerful church organ that many progheads will love, another excellent song. "Wondrous stories" another excellent ethereal ballad. "Awaken" a fifteen minutes song; nothing similar to Close to the Edge, an excellent authentic progressive song, a bit bombastic to my taste, and 4 stars is a very fair rate to this album, a classic album with touches of classic music.
