10.000 DAYS

This still has all the hallmarks of a great Saga album .Quirky guitar / keyboard interplay ,w/ a touch of pop sensibility .This album rounds out nicely the recent resurgence in Saga's discography starting w/the comeback album Full Circle ,& an additonal 5 corkers ,the only weak one in my view Marathon which in itself did have some very good moments .The rest of this sixpack however are nothing short of genius .It's really a shame Michael has to go ,I'm sure the guys will give us some top shelf music as Jim Gilmour has an excellent voice w/ a very haunting quality ,however as we know Mr.Sadler is irreplacable .I honestly have to say since their latest run starting in '98 ,their music was getting more airplay in my car & my home more than any other group in quite some time .Also the live Chapters & Detours were a rewarding trip for us diehards .But if they had to go they certainly went out w/class on 10,000 Days ,a fitting coda .On a more personal note just want to tip the hat & a big thank you from a fan that's been w/you since album number one ! cheers & god bless Dan Nova Scotia
