5 stars AWESOME!!!!!!!! This record is a must for anyone who wanted to know what all kinds of different "prog" artists would sound like if they jammed together. With this album Billy Sherwood has finally climbed out of the pseudo-prog box and established himself as a sort of Steve-Wilson persona who is somehow capable of bridging the gap between the strands of different types of prog, rock and jazz-fusion. On one album he has brought together Jerry Goodman (Mahavishnu), John Wetton, Geoff Downes, Alan Parson, Chris Squire, Gary Green (Gentle Giant), Peter Banks, Annie Haslam, Larry Fast, Steve Hillage, Tony Levin, Rick Wakeman and Tony Kaye. If that wasn't enough, he got Colin Moulding (!) out of retirement to guest on a track with Rick Wakeman (!!)...It's XTC meets Yes! I normally do not gush this much over new records theses days but dang! This one is really something. There really is something for everyone here. This is an incredibly cool record. I hope to see more of this outfit, and get Dave Gregory and Andy Partridge in here as well and lets have a mini-XTC reunion!

BUY THIS RECORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
