THE POWER AND THE GLORY

This is one of the harder albums to really get into. But once you do, there's loads of good stuff here. There fun rockers, complexity galore (like always with Giant), softer songs (which is nice), and some even with a bit of jazzy influence. I wasn't overly fond of Valedictory's ending, nor did I enjoy the bonus tracks. The live performance of Proclamation is terrible, and GG made a good decision on not putting the title track on the album.) Overall, though, one of Gentle Giant's best albums. Very much enjoyed.
