It's been a long time since I enjoyed an album as much as this, possibly not since Van Der Graaf Generator - and it's become essential weekly listening. I'm been in the habit of just listening to individual tracks in recent years but this I have to hear from start to finish every time.

While I wasn't quite old enough to know the original Fusion Orchestra, the feedback I heard at the gig I went to seemed to suggest that this album is a worthy successor.

Leaving It All Behind is a great upbeat start but my stand out song is Secret Shadow - a track which remains interesting throughout its substantial length and never degenerates into meaningless musical meanderings. I also love the short piano pieces between tracks which link it all up perfectly.

If you're thinking of giving it a listen, go for it, you won't be disappointed.
