3 stars MARCHING GRASS ON THE HILL is a very pleasant album to listen, joyfull to the heart.

It is also further form the prog core than BIRD EYES VIEW, definitively bending to the classical-jazz zone.

Classic Medley is, well ..., what it's name implies and of relative interest.

While BEV was a pure instrumental opus, MGOTH incorporates voices (in japanese), wich also gives folk impulses and even new-age tones here and there (Benikoh).

Coral Reef is a delightfull ballad échoing guitar and clarinet.

The new mix Adolescencia is not a success ; Woman of Ireland, on th other hand, is an interesting jap-irish folky fusion with some charm.

Interpretation is top; sound is clear; recording is perfect; pleasure is there. It is just that little something missing that would turn that very good into something absolutely unforgetable. Maybe just a bit too light ? Maybe a lack of contrast ?
