I have to say you write some fine reviews these days Even if I don't always post, I always check your recommendations out and this time is no different. I've only listened to the first track so far but I love it! Flute near always kicks ass and I like the slightly funky feel to it. The Dragon also sounds good.
Thanks again!

On the strength of this review, I joined the Forum, Anteater! Having grown up in the 80's, I remember Level 42 as a slicker than your ordinary pop act. But I didn't plunk down any cash for their music until the compilation Level Best came out in '90. Needless to say, I wore out my cassette copy but never went back and discovered some of their more obscure tracks. I would say their music is kind of a Prog Pop with somewhat dated but excellent musicianship.

I've read all the reviews in this thread and found them very interesting - I like your style. Although I am a fan of John Lawton with Uriah Heep, I could never get into Lucifer's Friend. They seem a bit too Led Zeppelin-like for my taste. Ambrosia and Grobschnitt are pretty good though, while The Tangent are a bit underrated (IMO). The T2 album is one of those albums that seemed exotic or intriguing when they were released, suffered poor sales and later became cult items. In hindsight, T2, like Gnidrolog, Clear Blue Sky and Gravy Train, seem a bit disappointing (to me at least).
It is always good to read reviews of progressive rock albums, especially the more obscure examples. I meant to comment much earlier but did not get round to it for some reason. Anyway, keep up the good work. |

This looks an interesting journal, especially your marking system 5.3/7 and 6.1/7 for example, I'm baffled
