4 stars Another classic, the first "Canterburian work" by CAMEL, very accessible, being characterized by melodic songs, but also with some incredible symphonic excursions (well actually the live version -entitled "Live Record"- is much stronger than this studio version, but it never minds!!), which have been often regarded equal to those ones inside the most famous album of the early Era of Camel:"MoonMadness".The best track of this latter -"Lunar Sea"-is so much good and as much important as the hit-track "Rhayader" from "The Snow Goose". Both songs have been performed live in the eighties, and by supplying another huge impact to the crowd of Camel fans the spacey keyboards by Bardens- along with the splendid guitar solos by Latimer- have been always the most memorable moments of such Camel's lives !!

Recommended, even though I prefer the live version of "A Live Record"!!
