MOTHER FROM THE SUN

I think I have to agree with previous reviewers, this is not using just Pink Floyd as an inspiration but advancing a new era of Floyd sound without actually being the Pink Floyd themselves. It's almost as if Dave Gilmour and the band did this as their next album after the Division Bell! But hey - this is Marco Ragni and he not only is inspired by the great band but advances their sound with his own special musical power.

When I was reading the review by Angelo, I thought this sounds too good to be true, but as Angelo was pleasently taken by surprise - I think I was bowled over just how much Marco has the precise ability to not only get a nostalgic moment going but to musically take a new improved angle at a familiar Pink Floydian concept and make it his own in everyway possible. I think Marco Ragni has this fantastic ability to transform the very meaningful point reg the Man versus Terra Firma Story and translating it into a double album of such beauty - I really don't know where to start (See Angelo's Review), and I'll just say that you have to listen to all the Album as a collective whole, or you may say disc one maybe better than disc 2!

I can guarentee both discs work - as both together have a power which makes the Beginning, Middle and End seem justified, I just need to listen to it again and again and thank Marco Ragni and all who steered me towards this album - simply perfect - even if a couple of songs towards the end on the second disc don't seem as good the first time - as a collective whole they most definitely do.
