5 stars Best of Orion (1975-2020) consists of 12 warm progressive rock songs with beautiful instrumental passages and beautiful melodies. It starts with Virtual Human, a prog track tinged with jazz, a soft voice, rich keyboard arrangements and changing rhythms. Big Bang is very King Crimsonian with atonal guitars in anguished and tortured atmospheres. T.O.W.U. is more in a Jazz Pop style reminiscent at times of Genesis from the seventies. La Face Visible honours Pink Floyd in a very beautiful way. The journey continues towards their first album with 2 tracks from the 70's La Nature vit, l'homme lui critique, a track in the vein of Camel's magnificent album " Mirage " and Obscurit' sans Rose with sophisticated and original music. This compilation ends in beauty with Shagreen, a calm but complex pulsation in an anguished and mysterious atmosphere. A record and a band to be advised by its richness and originality.
