A masterpiece of progressive pop wrapped in mature harmony and tranquility.
It reached number 5 on the UK charts and number 1 for five consecutive weeks in the US. The harmony between acoustic and electronic keyboards, along with the soft tones of the vocals and Mellotron, is impressive.
This album, which falls towards the end of the band's golden age, depicts a tranquil soundscape where folk-inspired melodies and Mellotron meld. Justin Hayward and John Lodge's songwriting matured, and the album includes songs with social themes like "I'm Just a Singer." The highly transparent studio recordings combine the structure and tranquility of progressive pop. Highly regarded as a representative work of the early '70s.
