DOWN TO EARTH

"Down To Earth" is for "Remember The Future" what "A Passion Play" should/could be for "Thick as a Brick" (Jethro Tull albums if somehow you don't know already).

A darker album, more eccentric, with separated songs instead of a continuous suite (Ian Anderson, you should do that on "A Passion Play"!) and one of the most (if not the most) inspired concept throughout the Nektar discography. The multi-gender nature of Nektar is on full display here, as they play anything from jazz to pop to folk to hard rock... Progressive it is my friends!

I might consider "Recycled" as the best Nektar album, but this one stands toe to toe with "A Tab in the Ocean" for the second place!
