NEAL MORSE

Well it's obvious to most that Neal Morse was the talent behind Spocks Beard (Not the only talent but the majority) With Testimony and One receiving great reviews i hope his first solo effort isnt overlooked. This album has a lot of the structure of Spocks Beard but Neal somehow seems less restrained in his ideas. This offering has a mixture of rock/pop and grand progressive. The twenty four minute 'A whole Nother Trip' is simply a masterpiece, well okay almost a masterpiece as that word is a little over used these days. But nonetheless it is a track worthy of some of the great prog bands.
