MECHANICAL MOONBEAMS

Their peak period but I always thought that this was overdone but it got carried away in this so-called eurock along with Kayak and Eloy which never did much for me. Somehow I always thought that Machiavel was too derivative of Genesis , Camel , Supertramp and to a lesser extent Yes . However Machiavel did a lot of good stuff to the Belgian music industry bringing a rock credibility and made a lot of people realize that Belgian bands could aldo make it big - later bands like DeuS owe a great deal to Machiavel if not on the musical inspiration at least in the possibility for existing.
