"The most loved of all Nektar's albums. The whole album consisted of just
one 40–minute long piece, which is completely flawless. The track is extremely carefully
structured and well–written. There's absolutely no unnecessary in here. With
the exception of the end of "Part 1", there is almost no instrumental
parts here. But there's no need to worry, cause the vocals are very tasteful
and pleasant, and always based in great themes. This album also have the most perfected
Nektar–sound. The lyrics is about a boy who speaks to a bird, and the whole story
has a very optimistic and nice message. The album was also Nektar's best selling,
so it seems that the record–buying public SOMETIMES have some good taste. This album
is just as important to any prog collection as Yes's "Close to the Edge",
ELP's "Brain Salad Surgery" and Genesis's "Foxtrot,"
