EL PROFETA

OK, I have a huge collection of all kinds of progressive music. I am not a novice at hearing new things that are a surprise, and yet enjoying them, even though they don't sound like my preconceived ideas of what I thought it would sound like.

I have listened to this numerous times, trying to see the good in it. I am sorry, I just can't.The cheesy vocal harmonies, although well-done, are so out of place within what I like (and again, I LIKE A LOT!) The instrumentation is OK, but the use of the little single note, MOOG type sound is so dated that it is out of place most of the time.

Having said all of that, I sure appreciate that others enjoy this, and the comparison to Italian symphonic / romantic era is accurate. It just goes too much into that style of music that I personally don't like, as it becomes kind of a 70's American TV show soundtrack.

Just my opinion, and THANKS for Progarchives.com for continued operation.
