Title: I knew UK, and this is no UK
Product review: OK, this is a reasonably pleasant neo-prog album with plenty of nods to the masters, and includes an old master in great form: Allan delivers several Holdsworthy solos there, and they're worth a listen. But the rest has nowhere near the power, intensity, or edginess of the original UK. The late vocalist is a little Gabriel-esque, but is also no Gabriel, and the lyrics don't have Gabriel's flair for poetry. Overall I found the whole thing a little flat except in occasional flashes (besides AH's contributions). Not an unpleasant listen, but would only merit 3 stars if not for AH.
