Title: Back to the Basics
Product review: With "Full Circle," the talented Saga returns to the type of music that made them one of the most innovative bands of the eighties. Lead singer Michael Sadler and additional vocalist Jim Gilmour do some great trade-offs and punctuate their vocals with gusto. The addition of a children's choir is something you'd never expect on a Saga song, but they do it on "Follow Me," and it's a delightful surprise. Another great song reminiscent of their earlier efforts is "Time Bomb." It starts off with a bang and ends with an abrupt crescendo. The single, "The One" is a good tune, as well. The album's only flaw and it's a minor one, is that there is some repetition in the tempos and song composition, but the guys still know how to do exciting synthesizer and guitar breaks, and never let the energy level sag, even on the slower tunes. All in all, a refreshing collection. I'll forgive them now for the atrocious "Generation 13."
