An excellent lost and found album. This album was originally released in 1978 and fell into obscurity pretty quickly. Our good friends in Soleil Zeuhl re-released it again thirty years later. Something I am very grateful for. This album is no less than a diamond. This album is labeled as Zeuhl. Well, I am not sure about that. The music here is in my view as much Symphonic, RPI, Eclectic, RIO and folk as well as Zeuhl. The title track pretty much falls down in all these above mentioned categories. It is a very pastoral track with a lot of references to both Genesis masterpiece Foxtrot, PFM's first three albums and most of Gentle Giant's albums. This is Zeuhl-light. The rest of the album is also very pastoral and lyrical, driven by organ as it is. The vocals is also pretty special and a blend of RPI and Zeuhl. All the tracks are really great. Unfortunate, the sound level on the bonus tracks are not up to scratch. But this is still a great album with a great crossover appeal to both fans of Genesis, PFM, Gentle Giant and Eskaton. 4 stars
