4th and final album, and their most overtly progressive rock oriented album - down to the Roger Dean cover! This was originally on Dawn from 1974. "Lack of commercial success drove them away from Vertigo into the arms of Dawn, while gigging all over the country to create a following. Their swansong, housed in a Roger Dean cover and with a revised line-up, starts with the very best cut they made, Starbright Starlight, a blistering piece of melodious hard-rock, that sets the standard for similarly inclined music (though not many may have heard it, of course). The rest of the album isn't up to the same standard, but the title track with its Bach-derived intro and an unexpected foray into Greek folk, is good too."Marcel Koopman/Tapestry of Delights [Repertoire]
