5 stars Wow... What an astonishing masterpiece!This is one of the albums,that let me think every little note is on the right place.The name of the album is perfectly chosen by this great musicians - Close to the Edge,because it is really close to the edge of human abilities.What about the homonymous song of the album.I would like too say that every little moment on the song follows completely the previous one.Perfect balance of the sound and songwriting.The song contains five or six parts in terms of structure.There are first preface,second preface,inception of the action,emotional peak,denouement,end and epilogue.I would like to mark my favourite moment on the song - between 14:55 and 15:45 minutes.This is the emotional peak of the song and I regard these fifty seconds as one of the best sounds I've ever heard.And You and I is classic sounding ballad with clear and correct tempo.Siberian Khatru is fan favourite genius song with superbly variation it tempo signature with crystal sound.Highly recommended for clever brains!
