I quite like Starcastle's debut.

You can do worse than sounding just like Yes.

I think very highly of their debut, self-titled album. The music is technically superb, as well as  being refreshing and lyrical.
        I find what they did after this is inferior, and in the shadow of this first album.

Ironically, 'Real to Reel' was an initial disappointment because there were far fewer of the expected Yesisms employed. Indeed  back in the 70's I found a couple of tracks there suggesting a softened down  Bad Company with harmonies.
The best eclectic music on the Web,8-11pm BST/GMT THURS.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I'm personally not much of a fan.

Maybe it's the cliche thing to say, but they do sound almost like a 'Yes clone' (although I'm sure you've all heard that one a million times)

So what do you think of them?
I can't stand Justin Bieber....
