Mediocre album from an average band. Unfortunately. I´m sorry.

Theoretically yes, well, this is Symphonic, but comparing with greatest Prog Giants, I must to admit Aphrodite´s Child aren´t in their level at all.

I like the album a lot, but I don't LOVE it.  And I'm certainly not IN LOVE with it.  The album and I have never had intimate relations.  OK?

A good chunk of it is excellent.  Several spots are a little lyrically awkward (no doubt due to English as a second language).  Overall it seems a bit fragmented - side one especially sounds like a bunch of separate recordings by different bands.

I know that I'm being overly critical of what is quite a cool album, and one I am more than proud to own.  But overall, after months of hand-wringing and sleepless nights, I vote "No".
