It's good but somewhat indulgent. Did they really have to make it a double album?

We disagree again TP. Smell the Glove is in fact a
deeply sensitive and personal statement - it's not
'sexist' it's 'sexy' (there's such a fine line).

Ah but come off it! Musically it's just a pop rock album. Where are the epic songs like Stonehenge?

Whilst I admit it does not match the transcendant
heights of Intra-Venus de Milo there is still much for
the average prog fan to enjoy.

Am I the only Taphead that liked Smell the Glove????It appeals to the metalhead in me,I find it refreshing that they were trying out new things and going in a new direction.
And IMHO Intra-Venus de Milo is highly overrated

Surely Smell the Glove is just as innovative Shark Sandwich, Intra-Venus De Milo, etc. I mean, never has a cover been so black. I defy you to give me a cover that could be none more black than this. Besides, you could see yourself in both sides. Now tell me its not an innovative album.

Don't forget their as yet unreleased concept album based on the life of
Jack The Ripper! Definately a prog masterpiece, if it ever gets
released.
