The band incorporates elements of jazz and classical music into their literary, mellow, and tasteful sound.
It reached number 4 in the UK and number 31 in the US. It includes "Cadence And Cascade" with its beautiful soft vocals and flute, and "Pictures Of A City" with its rough guitar and saxophone. The performance has a strong session feel, with Robert Fripp at the center.
