Negative Positive
Title: Elements/Mask
Review: Having both the LP and digital copies of in particular Roger Glover's "Elements", it is a shame that this is no longer available for purchase. Mask is mostly a synth/pop album from the early 80's that has charm in it's own right, but there is nothing particulary intriguing about the release. Elements on the other hand is a wonderfully complex, intriguing & challenging piece of work that you would be suprised to come from Roger Glover. It has a very grand orchestrated sound with lush arrangements, beautiful melodies & singing, reminding one more of a broadway play than an album. It reminds you at times of Rick Wakeman's "Journey to the Center of the Earth" from the early seventies. If you are a fan of Roger's or symphonic rock in the least bit, I would highly suggest Elements...too bad the record companies don't agree.
