5 stars This is the absolute peak of all progressive rock. 1972 was a great year in progressive music, "Close To The Edge" was a big help for that. Opens with the 18 minute title-epic. Masterpiece from start to finish, not much more to say that hasn't been said in earlier reviews. "And you and i", is a 10 minute epic, and it really feels like a looong road, even thought it's beautiful. "Siberian Khatu" closes the album, but in my opinion and surely many others, it would have been better as an opener. It has all the right ingredients to catch the listeners attention. 5/5
