內容簡介
內容簡介 This musical interpretation of THE SNOW GOOSE is progressive rock at its best, with none of the overdone bombast that was the eventual bane of the genre. This is mellower, a touch jazzlike, with the orchestral touches understated & so very organic.Additionally, the legal restrictions that prevented the band from using spoken narrative from the novella prove to be an advantage—except for some wordless atmospheric vocals, this is an instrumental album, and is all the better for it. Where many concept albums foundered under their own pretentions, this one is everything you'd hope such an album would be, developing its themes & carrying them through with free-flowing ease. It's a soundtrack for the mind—if you've seen the poignant, poetic film with Richard Harris & Jenny Agutter from 1971, its images will immediately come forth; if not, you'll create your own.Tracklist 1.
