PROG REVIEWER
Alaska is a band that incorporates in their music sounds and symphonic elements from Yes and Starcastle.
Al Lewis is the voice and drumer of Starcastle so it's clear that this band is influenced by them. This is
symphonic music with very nice passages, nice keyboard works through the album, but sometimes i think
is to mellow. Anyway good effort by the band, some strong compositions are Museum Dreams ( great
vocal harmonies) and the longest track from here Tiananman Square. All in all 3 stars album for me, still
to some of you is a copy of Yes and Starcastle but to me is a good symphonic album that has some
highlights here and there. Pleasent most of the time, good but non essential, for fans who listen Yes, Starcastle, Legacy.

The good news is that these musicians have made a credible effort to revisit the true spirit
of Yes. They lay out some really interesting parts. Especially the longer epic songs climb to
some degree of majesty. The politically relevant Tienanman Square is an astounding piece
of labour. Its dev
