I currently own about five Tangent albums(cds). I have the first two and also le sacre, a spark in the aether and slow rust.

Is he the producer of 'Zopp'? What was the deal?

He produced and played on a few tracks but I think his biggest contribution was moral support.

Andy produced and played on the album, but it was only one track I think. He’s doing a insight into how the Tangent writers an epic song, in his Facebook page this week is. The first episode, plus the song hasn’t been started. Andy said its going to be showing the whole process from start to finish and it will be in the next Tangent album.

Noooo!
His voice is so warm and calm and sweet!

That song sold the album for me. But Under Your Spell is gorgeous. I'm not always in the mood for the Tangent, but when I am Andy Tilson's laconic romantic cynicism just hits the spot and the music is so rich. Really like it. Jined In Jersey is wonderfully bonkers. This is really hitting the spot for me, capping off a cracking week of prog purchases.

Check out Andy Tillison's previous band Parallel or 90 degrees. Was lucky enough to see them live- a heavier, darker mix of influences than the Tangent but equally inventive.

Parallel or 90 Degrees was an awesome band. I seem to recall "Afterlifecycle" being my favorite thing they did. Super-good stuff. So cool that you got to see them in concert!

The new album imho is an absolute excellent addition to the Tangent catalogue

Unless you count all of Le Sacre du Travail as a single long piece, we have a new-record longest Tangent song in the 28:17 of Lie Back and Think of England.
