3 stars I bought my first Gandalf albums to use them as background music in my massage studio. So I was very surprised to find this artist on this site. Of course, those albums that have lyrics and vocals somehow qualify as prog. But I was surprised.

Tale From A Long Forgotten Kingdom is purely instrumental, and it is somewhere between not heaven and hell, but Prog and New Age. It is difficult to use in the studio because of the drums, but not something I would listen to in my free time or in the car. Well, the bathtub might be a good place to have it for background music.

It is difficult to single out one or the other track. None of it is bad, but unfortunately there is also none of it really standing out. Everything is pretty average, but luckily not boring. So I'll have to go for 3 stars for an album that doesn't leave a distinct impression.
