5 stars Forget everything who hearded about progressive rock. this is another thing: "Lizard" is like a cathedral: big, strong, and lightness. "Cirkus" is the beginning, with power opening of mellotron and a foolish sax of Mel Collins in a swing vein. "Indoor Games" and "Happy Family" goes to the free jazz with complex harmonies and lots of changes. "Lady..." is a song for the middle age (the song of flute is a must). But the better is title track: a suite which begins with voice of angel (Jon Anderson) and ends with a devil sound ("Battle of Glass Tears"). This song is a mix of free rock and allucinations came from the mind of Robert Fripp. This is a album for the open, open mind.
