5 stars Well, what can I say? This is the prog milestone, this is the ultimate prog masterpiece, this is The Prog Experience. I've been listening to this record for over 25 years now and I still can't believe that this kind of music was possible. Apparently from the first note there's a touch of genius. This record is absolutely astounding, full of brilliant musicianship that's simply beyond belief. This is Close To The Edge music that can literally change your life. That's probably why a few people might refuse to admit or acknowledge that this is the true gem of progressive music. I guess that not only prog addicts should be grateful to Jon, Chris, Steve, Rick and Bill for making this record. This is one of the best musical achievements since Mozart IMO. I guess you don't have to be a musical expert to understand that what you hear on this record is the very definition of progressive music. Absolutely essential!
