Always been one of my favorites.
Unfortunately, nothing that followed even came close, IMHO.

What a great album this is....with some outstanding sounding tron use by Jan ( a MK5 in
his studio) along with a rare appearance by the Freeman String Symphoniser( which he ran
thru a Moog String Filter for a very realistic "wooden" tone). I can pick out violins,
brass,flutes, cello,male and female voices...and all of them sound a bit clearer than normal
Mellotron use on other albums. Run out and buy the remaster if you haven't done so.
