Negative Positive
Title: Very underrated
Review: I have to disagree with the first reviewer. Calling is, in my opinion, the most under-rated progressive rock album of all time. Thats a strong statement, considering I have heard hundreds of prog albums over decades of listening. It is definitely the stronger of However's two albums. I would rate it equal to any of the best material from Gentle Giant. The lyrics are both evocative and humorous. As a whole the song crafting is sensitive and adventurous, eclectic and subtle enough to warrant many listenings over a lifetime and still discover new things about it. For example, that blazing guitar solo is actually the melody from Charlie Parker's "Donna Lee". The bonus tracks sound like material for a third album that was never completed. They fit the tone of this album perfectly.
Is the review positive or negative?
