5 stars This is the best album that has come from USA apart from the three albums Happy The Man produced. Then there are others like Fireballet and Yezda Urfa and I mustn't forget Zappa. Anyways this album is pure gold, 4 excellent songs which all feature enjoyable singing and lyrics by Doroccas the USA-Gabriel. The Mote In God's Eye is the most innovative and personal track on the album. It sounds least like Genesis, especially Doroccas sounds really individual. Also the beat that repeats itself for a couple of minutes brings Marillions Garden Party to mind. Indeed this album posesses some neo-prog influences or should I say proto neo-prog. Musically this is not the ELP kind of virtuosity but still musically complex and at some points fast music that evolves constantly. What a fine album!
