5 stars I came upon "More than meets the eye" (or maybe it came upon me) by chance. I was early 90's and I was looking for some music to by and I saw IQ's "Ever" and then there was this CD. I heard both CDs, trying to decide which one to buy and then choose by get them both. To this day I'm happy of that decision, Jadis was a real discover. Chandler is a great musician; sings good, plays guitar very well and composes great music. This is Jadis's album I love best. Orford and Jowit are there? OK, but they know they are just accompanying Chandler and Christey (drums), this is not their side project, but Chandler's own child. The music? Well, it have always a happy feeling. Strong, fast, always harmonious. Christey plays with great rhythm, Chandler on the high notes. Sung parts are very melodic, instrumental ones are friendly complex and they interact consistently. Each time I listen to this CD I get a good emotional feeling. I think (and feel) this a must have, is a great sample of how nice neo prog can sound.
