4 stars 3.75: the last solo effort by Wright . The lyrics are based in his then-wife Mildred's battle with depression, and consistently good in most of the parts. Musically, is a mostly and instrument album. I liked far from the hardbound wall, reaching for the rail, Along the Shoreline(L), Breakthrough, runaways,Unfair Ground, satellite, Woman of Custom(L) As I commented in the previous album, although I like his voice, I feel like he needs to improvise more the way of he sing to deliver different tones. it sound more like space electronic record, sometimes it remind us the Wish you were here era, however I would like to have more improvisation, because it doesnt evolve into something spectacular, although it is good in general. In fact It actually feels like a Floyd record, however not as good as them. Finally, at the end is an excellent addition to any prog collection having a really good moments, with some other not as good but in general a good record.
