5 stars Okay, where to start with this album. This is a masterpiece. A grandiose album with great performances, great songwriting and great lyrics. After the mellow and beautiful instrumental concept album The Snow Goose, Camel came back with songs that are stronger and very progressive. Songs that have Genesis, Pink Floyd and jazz influences but still have that Camel touch in it.

Aristillus is a synth prelude to the album that is very well composed.

Song Within a Song is where the album really starts. This is a beautiful progressive song. One of the highlights of the album

Chord Change is a great instrumental. Heavy hitting but soft at the same time.

Spirit of The Water is a great ambiant track. It is very beautiful.

Another Night makes me think of funk music that we can't dance because of it's heavy 3/4 time signature. But it's far more than just that. It's a big progressive song

Air Born is beautiful.

Finally, Lunar Sea is the best song on the album. Heavy and great. It makes me think of jazz-fusion.
