5 stars This hidden gem kind of album got my interest because of it's positive reviews here on PA. So time to check it out. Prog from 1979 is intriguing on itself and when it on top of that comes from Sweden as well it's almost a guarantee for quality.

And so this appeared a true fact after listening for several times. This is high caliber instrumental symphonic stuff in slightly jazzy style. Main instrument is the keyboard or should I say organ because that's significant in many of the tracks. The songs are complex in a nice way, that is complex enough to be interesting (and progressive) but not over the top. Really pleasant material on here.

And so it will please most progfans I dare to state. At least it has done so far. Bear in mind that this is no.15 of all times where symphonic prog is concerned. And even no.4 where the rating average is concerned. And it's only because of the low number of ratings this isn't as high as it should be. So time to check it out I would like to say to all respectable progfans. 5 stars isn't exaggerated
