OBSCURED BY CLOUDS

This is an underrated album. I give it 4 stars, it's a good edition to any progressive collection. In truth, it's not really that progressive, but it is in the sense that it's not like traditional rock and roll. The first two songs are 2 parts of one, and have been played together live in extended jams for around 14-16 minutes, on several bootlegs. The Gold It's In The... is a standard, cheerful sounding rock song, there are also some bluesy sounding influences as well. Stay is a nice calming song, and Childhood's end is a David Gilmour classic. There's some really great stuff on here, it really brings you into the mood of the movie. After all, it IS a soundtrack album.

I like this album a lot, not a SUPER MASTERPIECE, but it is good.
