BLACK CLOUDS & SILVER LININGS

This CD is typical of the Jordan Rudess keyboard era. His keyboards are mixed down except for a few solos and they are hard to make out and to short. There is also very little guitar keyboard interplay that is critical to great prog rock. This appears to be another Portnoy/Petrucci show. That is sad because it should be the DT show not just them. Highlight track is "The Count of Tuscany", not for the length but good prog sound. From the looks of it I'm in the minority on this one, but I can't give this one a good review.
