SEE SEE THE SUN

I love this Dutch band, and their first album especially. It's a sort of melodic prog, full of great ideas and very pleasant lyrics. The group shows a great balance between song format and more complex themes in a symphonic style. Excellent guitar/piano interplays and delicate vocal harmonies are the real Kayak focus. "Lovely luna" is a long symphonic track, including mellotron and fascinating passages, but I love "Forever is a lonely thought" for its melancholic mood: it's a jewel! Kayak is a high level band, and above all these guys are gifted musicians never boring you. A fine album.
