THE SLEEPING BEAUTY

Bel Air - this totaly unnoticed neo prog band from mid '80's from Germany did a great job here with this second album and the final one from their career. They play in vein of Pallas, Chandelier or Deyss but with their own twist. Very pleasent this second album from 1987 named The sleeping beauty. Lots of great guitar chops, great key passages not far from Genesis (Duke era) very well puted together by Markus Vogt who really knows how to interplay with the rest of the musicians and create something worthy investigate. The best piest is the title track - The sleeping beauty - near 11 minutes of the highest class neo prog, the rest of the pieces are great aswell. I wonder why they are so unknown to prog circles this germans, this is really a great album who desearve a wider recognition. So a good album who desearves fro me 3 stars easely, well not a masterpiece but a good and catchy album all the way. Is quite hard to find this album, but if you do, give it a try, you will not be deseppointed for sure.
