KEYSTUDIO

All tracks here were made in the studio but were already included in their live albums Keys to Ascension 1 and 2. So, if you already have the live albums, I don't think you need to buy this album that I consider as compilation. Despite, all tracks contained here are excellent with my true favorites are Be The One and Mind Drive. Be The One has a great combination of acoustic part and when the drums also be part of the music. It flow wonderfully from one segment to another. Mind Drive reminds me to the band's creativity in the era of Close To The Edge or Relayer. It's beautifully composed and as the music flows I relate the music with their early days in the 70s. Not only the music that is excellent, the sonic quality / production of the CD is truly great. I usually play Be The One with relatively high volume at my amplifier. It's really cool.

Overall, musically this is very satisfying album that reminds us to the band creative years in the 70s. It's a must have for the band's fans. Keep on proggin' ..!
