IN THE REGION OF THE SUMMER STARS (1984)

Reading the many reviews on Prog Archives about this album I noticed that one person concluded that the CD reissue of "In the region of the summer stars" is a lifeless result. Well, I own the original LP and my conclusion is that this CD re-issue is NOT a lifeless effort! The shifting moods between the fragile piano play and the frequent bombastic eruptions are very well re-recorded, the interplay between the fiery electric guitars and the orchestral (Wagner-like) keyboards sounds very well and the instruments like assorted percussion and the new recorded bass work sound clear or warm, the producers have done a great job and justice to one of the most original progrock recordings ever. IF YOU LIKE UNIQUE AND DYNAMIC, CLASSICAL INSPIRED PROGROCK, THIS ONE IS FOR YOU!!!
