TO OUR CHILDREN'S CHILDREN'S CHILDREN

The theme of this album centers around space travel and the legacy we leave for future generations. A masterful, fully immersive album, probably their most cohesive, with all the songs just flowing and working together so well to form this masterwork. The album opens with Higher and Higher, a musical simulation of a rocket blasting off and a rocking instrumental backing to Pinder's recitation of Edge's prose, before going into Eyes of a Child, which ponders the wonderment of space travel. The album flows from one highlight to another with a lushly comforting sound and style, wonderful vocals, enveloping sound, and compelling lyrics. Songs such as Gypsy and Beyond provide the more upbeat rockin' elements, while the more beautifully laconic Out and In and magnificent Watching and Waiting serve up emotional and inspirational high points. A stunning achievement that has to be experienced in total. Best Songs: Gypsy, Watching and Waiting, Higher and Higher, Eyes of a Child, Beyond, Eternity Road, Out and In. Rating: 5
