Heart of the Matter

Excellent single out of an excellent album. Where's the catch, then? There's none, if you love singles like I do.

On the A face "Point Of Know Return" introduces the well-known but ever effective tale of sailors in the hands of an uncertain destiny. After a brief symphonic intro consisting in a few powerful chords by the band, the main melody kicks in driven by Mr. Steve Walsh' voice over the most simple and memorable piano line... and it never let you go.

On the so called B face (another A, really) "Closet Chronicles" begins with vocals nicely floating over an ondulating Hammond, and then goes over to a full-blown hard-prog workout, with odd metric shifts, blistering guitar solo, you name it. Gorgeus classical bridge, too
