4 stars Nothing to be added to the excellent and fervent statement by tzirmay, appart that with such a cast of musicians ( Nick Magnus of Steve Hackett fame as musical director, Nick Potter, bassist of latter days VDGG and Peter Hammill solos, John Giblin of Brand X and then who knows who, Simon Phillips who doesn't need further..., and Colin Blunstone the Zombies frontman and singer of the most lovely ballads of the Alan Parsons Project), how come there's so few movement around it here? I guess the time of publication, 1995, two years after his untimely death, and lovingly finished by his musician friends is at play here. As a testament of his artistic life, summarizing nicely is different signature sounds, Baroque folk Ala Nick Drake of his two first albums, glam/prog/fusion many refer to as Roxy Music alike but that myself I put on the same shelf as Ant Phillips' Sides and not to far from some of the Brand X post Collins' days thanks to the Hymas/Giblin/Phillips input. If one prefer his debut, Colin Blunstone's One Year on which he is featured is a rare treasure too.
