4 stars I found this Album as an amazing work, from to soft and good earing guitars to the amazing work in bass and drums. the album begin the the jumping fast song "freefall", at first, that song i liked the most, he's really fun to hear, guitars and keyboard are great on that song. after freefall it continous with the soft and pure prog song called Supertwister, with great keyboards. I found that song less in the quality of the other, he's still a really nice song, but he's the only real reason that I give this album 4 star, and not 5. after, the song based on the wellknown famous book, "the lord of the rings.", by the name "Nimrodel", at first, I didnt liked that song much, I must admit, but after sevrel hearings, I acctually found that song it's the best of this album, a pure masterpiece, it's quite let me down, only because it's based on "the lord of the rings." and not as a full own work, but to the music and playing in this song, truely amazing, every single second and you dont get bored, after alot of time. it continues to the amazing, great timing, fast, [found it quite funky as well.] "earthrise". the drums, the bass, the guitars, all have been worked on greatly. the last song, the first song I have ever heard of Camel, the only real reason for really buying that album. [and then of course find it not as less good.], The quick tempure changing song, with amazing lyrics. great vocal "Lady Fantasy". the first thing in that song I noticed, was the amazing work of the bass, leading this song all the way, with great timing with the drums, and fast following with the guitars, and of course fast working on the keyboards, all mixed so good, might possibly be the best song on this album to some peoples, but for me he's after Nimrodel, pure progressive masterpiece that song is. --- "Mirage" is a must album for progressive music style fans.
