5 stars - Well now close to edge its the super epic and very well composed full of energy passion and inspiration song. And also its Bruford here so what else you want??. I have the remastered version and runs up to the 72 minutes and still fills my imagination with amazing things. I try to understand how this super artists made this majestic work. But i cannot imagine it, maybe gods' thing went here. Everything here fills in the right place. Nothing of lack and pretentious just plenty of beautiful and impressive sounds. Steve howe its in his very sentimental and full of soul tempos. Bruford is always a guarantee, and well used "bass-drum" sounds always surprises me. And squire as always a virtuoso full of inspiration and feeling that combines with the genius of Bruford. Jon Anderson with his particular and sharp(acute) voice that does that everything seems to be eternal. And Rick Wakeman also to be remembered contributes here and know it. Makes notice of the best way. There is a part of tranquillity that is followed by a game of voices that ends in a glorious organ; this is heaven. If you want to know and to enjoy a real main work of the progressive symphonic, you must acquire this album to the possible briefness. The best.
