THE ALL EUROPEAN HERO

Galleon is no doubt one of my fav bands ever and probably in my top 3 best neo prog bands. I simply love this band and I have a soft spot for each album they got, specially those released in the '90s. The all european hero from 1996 continues the neo prog tradition we get use from previous albums , but this time this album is concentrated more on keyboards and vocals, the guitar parts are left little bit behind. Not bad at all, what we have here is long pieces with lush instrumental harmonies, beautiful vocal arrangements and some superb keyboards. This is definetly the kind of neo prog I like, they have that something that other bands from this genre doesn't have. All pieces stands as great with a plus on opening track The All European intro , Traffalgar Square and the excellent lenghty instrumental European Anthem. All in all a very worthy neo prog album, at least for me, I'm a fan of the band for years and with each listning I discover new and enjoyble arrangements. Among the best Galleon albums for sure. Love this band, greta cover art. 4 stars easy.
