5 stars Camel at their peak. This album, by a different way than others Camel albums, has not a weak song. It's an atmospheric album. You can feel as you were between strange places, maybe in the moon or something like that. Just a progressive masterpiece, and the only one from Camel, in my opinion. The music is dominated by Peter Bardens, who shines with his keyboards all the time.

The best track is Lunar sea, an outstanding instrumental of almost 10 minutes. Song within a song is another one, with a superb keyboard solo. Air born is the other highlight composed by Andy Latimer who shines with the guitar and the flute. It's a great song, very emotional. Spirit of the water is a little atmospheric gem. You can feel that something or someone not human is talking there. The other songs are great too.
