Edited 5 years agoSuper album with a good mix of slow and faster tempo material. Top track for me is the rendition of Curved Air's old barnstorming classic "Vivaldi". Not surprising really when we learn that Francis Monkman was now a member of Sky. Lots of lighter moments - "Tuba Smarties" for one - but also some longer stuff which rewards regular listenings. Try FIFO, yes, ALL of side 2 and some of the more restrained material on side 3.
It's worth it. -
I own two sets of this double album. One set has transparent dark red viny, the other has regular black. -
My copy on cover shows "Ariola Eurodisc. Ltd., Ariola Benelux B.V. and has silver labels. Cat. # is 301 118.
