3 stars 3.5 really for Performance

With all that here is no performance in Eloy's '83 album face the oldest one's, but still great, to me at least. What is the positive remark on Eloy music is they survived to the late '70's, when prog was not in front line, and to beggining of the '80, when pop and heavy metal was all over.They released more than 10 albums 'till this one, and of the highest calibre. Now on Performance they still doin' prog but more popish, some ex. are In disguise the opening track, in fact all tracks are with a touch of modern keys, electronic drums and other stuff that is necesary for this kind of musical aproach. Not by far a bad album, but with a plastic sound, more like pop bands from the early '80, Tomas Dolby for instance. Anyway Performance has very catchy tunes and full of colorful keyboards. Musical speaking Eloy always was very good, delivering stunning albums. So here we have a 3.5 , still good but i guess non essential for many of you, and to me too. This is the last one i want to hear from them.
