Does this need 100 words or more?...

Yeah, preferably quite a lot more. It says under ratings which are under the review box:

Quote PROGARCHIVES REVIEWS GUIDELINES:
1 - Write in ENGLISH, we regret that we cannot accept reviews in other languages. Avoid the use of on-line translators wherever possible, they will not do justice to your efforts. Do not use ALL CAPITAL LETTERS in your reviews, standard sentence case should be used at all times. Do not use abbreviations or �texting� language. Remember to check your review for spelling, grammar and punctuation. A poorly presented review can distract the reader from the well written content. Reviews accepted should be a MINIMUM 100 words preferably substantially more, no maximum.

2 - While ratings without reviews are accepted, you are strongly encouraged to write a review to support your rating.

3 - Feel free to review as many discs as you like, and to construct your reviews in whatever way you wish. (Tip, to start a new paragraph in your review, put <p> at the end of the previous paragraph.)


Incidentally, I don't think your review will now show up on the front page because you already rated it. I tried to delete your original rating yesterday, but it wasn't working.

It's weird,  after someone complained about a certain album with Eelie Craig  Hit and Miss.  I checked their discovery and bought all their albums in the past few days.
Hit and Miss the hardest to find.

I can sum up,  this is a great band from Austria which was often forgotten.

This band has elements of Camel, Nektar, ELP, Rick Wakeman, Stackridge, Colosseum, Soft Machine, Pink Floyd, Procal  Harum....  The list goes on...  This band is a Symphonic/Neo/ Jazz Fusion/ Crossover of music which started in the 70s....Smile

How I rate these albums 

1. Hats of Glass.... 10/10
2. One Niter .... 9.5/10
3. Eela Craig debut album 1971... 9.5/ 10
4. Missa Universalis ... 9/10
5. Virgin Oiland .... 8.5/10
6. Hit & Miss .... 5/10
7. Symphonic Rock .... 9.5/10

I came across 'One Niter' many years ago and firstly was really impressed by the photo of the band on the rear sleeve!! All that Kit!! A bit like the back of Ummagumma.. and set in some weird sculpture park..

A great European prog lp! Not so impressed with 'Hats of glass' with its version of Chris de Burgh's 'Spaceman came a travelling'.. there are a couple of really good tracks but a bit of filler in there too. Have meant to get the debut lp for years but just haven't got round to it.
