HEADS OR TALES

In 1981 Saga reached their creative peak with "Worlds aparts". The problem with having a great album is always how to make the next album not a bad one. A solution sometimes is recording an album which sounds totally different. Heads or tales was released in 1983, it isn't a Worlds apart part two, the sounds isn't changed much but the long epics are gone. Heads or tales contains accessible progressive pop-rock. Short tracks, no complex song structures but some very enjoyable music. Not a weak track here, excellent musical duels between guitar en keyboards. During this period the sound of Saga was comparable to the sound of their fellow countrymen Rush (Power Windows).The clean production work of Rupert Hine serves the album perfect. If you like Saga, get this, it's one of their last great records
