5.0 out of 5 stars Are they ever going to fix this?, September 15, 2007

I love this album. It's the flipside of Homemade Blood. The fact that no one has noticed that the reviews are for something else is quite disappointing.

This is one of the earliest, and best, neo-progressive albums. Every song is good and there is a good mix of short and long songs. Nick Barrett's guitar playing is excellent. In my opinion, this is Pendragon's best album.

4.0 out of 5 stars Usually I don't like newprog,except on a few good albums, December 12, 2002

Lethe "lor68" (Milan, Italy) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Jewel (Audio CD)

Usually I don't like the 80's UK newprog very much, except on a few albums by IQ and this work by Pendragon too... a promise being, afterwards not maintained !! Apart from the hit single "Higher circle" the rest is excellent, it's a quite personal stuff, characterized by fresh ideas, unfortunately not helped by the production, very weak, whose remastering I'm still waiting for!!
"Leviathan" is a stunning and original song; "Black knight" is probably their best; instead "Alaska" is better in the live version of "9.15" LIVE, whose interesting interplay between the guitar and the keyboards, in the 2nd movement, is memorable (however in the present studio album you find Nick Carter at the keyboards, while Clive Nolan plays the keys in the place of him in the live version...). At last a special mention for "Oh Divineo", which is perhaps the best instrumental composed by Nick Barret ...

Recommended even if it isn't a masterpiece !!
