FRAGILE

The first prog album I ever bought! I can vividly remember the impact it had on me, especially the ethereal mellotron at the beginning of'Heart of the Sunrise', and from then on I was hooked! The main tracks are all classics, but, unlike some reviewers, I find the short contributions of the individual members very satisfying also. 'The Fish' is very atmospheric, and 'Cans and Brahms' encouraged me to listen to Brahms 4th Symphony, and helped open up classical music as another huge area of musical interest. 'Fragile' is one of the best prog albums ever!
