This is an album that's determined to make as much use of stereo as it can.

Oh, before I forget I had listen to a bit of Indelibly Stamped before choosing to do this one.

It was terrible. yes

This is much better.

Track 7 - If Everyone Was Listening.

Back to Roger Hodgson.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue Mar 31, 2020 9:35 pm

I am convinced they listened to Macca's Dear Friend before recording this one.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue Mar 31, 2020 9:35 pm

This is my favourite song on the album.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue Mar 31, 2020 9:36 pm

Clarinet solo.

Lighters in the air, with a strange whimsical keyboard sound in the background

Last track - the title track.

Back to Rick Davies.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue Mar 31, 2020 9:39 pm

This is definitely my favourite Rick Davies track.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue Mar 31, 2020 9:40 pm

The drumming on this album's great.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue Mar 31, 2020 9:40 pm

Roger's back for the guitar solo.

by Guest Tue Mar 31, 2020 9:40 pm

Title track!

by Guest Tue Mar 31, 2020 9:41 pm

Must be the best song, it's the title track, and the last one.

I'm expecting epic.

by Guest Tue Mar 31, 2020 9:41 pm

I'm getting epic.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue Mar 31, 2020 9:41 pm

Piano outro's started.

This is a great piano outro.

In fact, I would say it's the best piano outro in history.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue Mar 31, 2020 9:43 pm

Sax.

Strings.

by Guest Tue Mar 31, 2020 9:45 pm

And it's over.

by Guest Tue Mar 31, 2020 9:46 pm

Well, that was alright. Reminded me a bit of earlish Queen.

Maybe we should do Sheer Heart Attack one of these days.
