3 stars Peter Bardens was and still remains one of the better musicians prog music ever had in the 70, he made history with Camel, but aswell had a solo career with hit and miss albums, at least for me.

His forth album from 1988 named Speed of light is one of those forgotten albums from his career. This time around he has a new age symphonic pop prog album in his sleeve, fans of Camel are gone crazy, in a bad way, but time are changing late 80s has nothing to do with mid to late 70s.

Kind cool release for my taste, 2-3 pieces are more then ok, like opening track Westward Ho, an enjoyble new age prog tune, nothing ground breaking but ok, another good song is the title track, all pieces has that plastic feel of the late 80s, electronic drums and pop new age atmosphere.

Overall to me is ok in places, and because I like him as musician I will round the vote to 3 stars, forgotten album and for good reason.
