5 stars To start with, I feel this is really one of the first real workings of a moog. The classical intertwining really gave a lot of bands influence. including YES.

To sum a few things up, The different tracks are all wonderful.

Lucky Man-would be a lot nicer if it wasn't the only thing played on the radio for the most part by them...

The one that I would really like to touch on is-----TANK

TANK- Is On Broadway-with the demented wind that swirls around time square added in... Listen to the two of them one than next. Kinda like an apacolyptic New York. the drum solo was probably the only place on the album for it to be placed for any possable functioning. The second half...Is the basis for Tarkus, and Abbadon's Bolero... The Mythology of the Manticore.. Head of a Lion, body of a dog, hair of a porcupine, and a tale of a scorpion. It was to hunt man by mesmerizing him with the combined sound of a flute and a horn. the later half deffenitly resembles this with its boelero march...

If there is sheet music out there for this I would love to find it...
