3 stars The swansong for Peter and the rest of the band. While I do understand the ambitious nature of this project, I have never really been a huge fan of THE LAMB LIES DOWN ON BROADWAY. There are some great, powerful tunes here, but some just feels like filler ("The Waiting Room", "Silent Sorrow"). I think if this double album had been pared down to the best songs on one record, it would have been awesome, with or without a coherent story, which is confusing even on a double album. I own the newer CD version, and the sound is still less than great. Sometimes, it is even muddled or "blurred". I can only give this 3 stars. I much prefer TRICK OF THE TAIL, NURSERY CRYME, or SELLING ENGLAND BY THE POUND.
