3 stars Man in the motion, besides the excellent front cover art, the music is almost as on Magic is a child. Released in 1980 is the final album , untill a long break for almost 20 years. Long gone are psychedelic and space prog elements that defines Nektar music, now they are more like something between Journey and Styx with saome parts remind me of Camel same period, that commercial aproach, that typical americanized sound. With all that the album is not bad, realy, I've realy enjoyed this album, maybe little more then Magic is a child. The band enter is the '80's with a fear, musicaly speaking, that seems to me , catch them in the end and put them down to the wall, that why they never release an album for almost 20 years untill they re unite in '00. Some pop/rocxk tunes combined here and there with some progressive elements but overall is not something special, but not bad. I don't have a fav tune here, almost are the same in value so I will give as on previous review to Magc is a child 3 stars, but less ok and enjoyble then on other albums where I've put 3 stars.
