This album has gone from rags to riches. The songs are quite good now that I can listen to them lol
All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

Other than the bands impressive ability to continue making original music from almost nothing, UW continues to remind of how prosaic & disheartened much 80s progrock was.   Tough times.

Agreed. Regarding JT, I think they fell off a cliff after Glasscock died and Ian fired Barriemore Barlow, John Evan and Dee Palmer. They never were the same. But then, I feel exactly the same about Genesis after Steve Hackett left, and the pop conglomeration that was Yes in the 1980s.

Mmm.. it was of its time and that was pretty grim.. and IA's obsession with spying and cold war intrigue didnt help to make the atmosphere any less chilly. At least it's not as bad as IA's solo effort 'Walk into light'....

I like WIL lol
Now that I’m hearing UW remixed with different drum sample I feel Tull were similar strength all the way through to 84. Genius Ian. They dropped off in late 80s though

Yeah, Tull should've definitely packed it in after Stormwatch .... which sounded tired anyways. The  only OK post-SW albums being Crest and Branches. 

Genesis' first two Hackett-less albums were still worthy, IMHO, but starting from Abacrap....

The drum sound wasn't the problem - it was the tunes!  Then again, I get off the Tull train around the time of the Living in the Past comp.  There are still some worthy moments, notably by Martin Barre, but just too much muck to dredge through to get to those worthy moments.  
I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there.....
