PICTURES FROM THE OTHER SIDE

The second Cyan album doesn't quite manage to hit the high standards of the previous one; the compositions aren't quite as interesting (possibly due to not having been worked on over the course of the a decade like the songs on the first album!) and the production isn't quite as good - which possibly explains why Rob Reed chose to remaster and remix this material when it was put out on the Cyan compilations in 1997 and 1999. To be honest, it's more interesting for being Reed's first collaboration with Christina Murphy, who would go on to become the lead vocalist of Magenta, than it is for the actual music here, which is fairly middle-of-the-road and cliched neo-prog.
