4 stars This CRIMSON album is very good!! The Pete Sinfield influence is clear here: floating mellotron, saxophones, wind instruments, this is a really peaceful and relaxing album. The songs are mellow, and there are even some jazzy and bluesy styles involved. There are beautiful string arrangements on "song of the gulls". And "Islands" is one of my favorite CRIMSON's song: a mellow and relaxing mix of catchy piano, small wind instruments, smooth vocals, that can be listened endlessly.
