"The basis of all future Pink Floyd music. They lay down the template here that structured everything they did afterward. With classical ensemble and choir"
"Early and fully realized masterpiece. Debut of the classic 5 man line-up. First real 'Genesis' album. Gabriel already a unique force to watch out for."
"Genesis' greatest artistic achievement. A classic in the genre. As perfect as 'Abbey Road'. Musical and lyrical forms so staggeringly rich in detail and awesome beauty."
"Quintessential YES. The summation of all they'd done before. Deeply inspired and vast in scope. From blistering rockers to their grandest symphonic vision."
"Glass & Reich inspired. Ultra-restrained but complex. Their 80's greatest. Crimson were rarely ever this tightly focused. Fripp, Bruford, Tony Levin, Adrian Belew."
"Grand finale to the mystical, fantastical Gong Trilogy. Visionary and eccentric genius that shifts up a few planes of reality to somewhere ineffable."
"Hillage's first solo release. Backed by the "You" Gong band, his musical ambitions and vision are broad in scope and sweeping in effect ... sweeping and BIG"
"Sophomore disc, produced by Todd Rundgren and backed by Utopia. Hillage didn't achieve the height of this incredible work again until System 7. His Greatest"
"His only solo album. Epic and timeless masterpiece, with an orchestra. One of the very few rock band meets orchestra albums that WORKS, and magnificently so."
"His 1st solo album. Lyrical and mystical Anderson in full flight, so that means way up and out there. Visionary and singular. A stratospherically mythical story for golden summer evenings."
"Classic Tull's pinnacle of achievement. Musically and lyrically mind-blowing. A merciless, complete skewering of the British upper class. Python-esque original cover was a mini-newspaper."
"The one that got me started. Greatest of the classic period, this album is exceptionally refined and carries a philosophical idealism and a breadth of vision above the rest of their work."
""Hero and Heroine" might've been their most commercial success, but this was their greatest artistic achievement. Their complete transformation from folk rock band to bright progressive contenders."
