4 stars What we have here is an outstandig live album by a well-known supergroup of prog stars shining, above all things, in the group's collective effort. But, don't be afraid, there are also a good share of solo takes on guitar and keyboards crowning the well-crafted songs that we have learned to love and expect from them. The mood is variable (in a good sense), making for an interesting listening experience, as well as the tempo and energy levels are, providing a much varied and entertaining soundscape for the ride.

As my own personal favourites here, I give you tracks 12 Infinite Fire and 13 Cosmic Symphony, both mini-suites featuring great instrumental expanse and wide dynamic range, going from delicate to overpowering within a few well spent minutes. Still, there's so much more going on here, that's for sure, as for example the smashing alchemy in the vocal harmonies all over the set.

An album meant to grace any record collection
