It is over.

That was a very pleasant album. I prefer Return of the Wayfaring Stranger, as the songs are better and, also, there's a greater variety of tempos and a higher body count.

However, I was pleased that, in the second half of this album, the death toll started to mount.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everyone else made of it.

I shall give this one 3 stars.
