Title: Beautiful Voices
Review: Mr Culver's review is certainly opinionated (and unfortunately expressed as fact) with respect to the producton of 'Voices of Life'. If he truly was up on his facts he'd know that Eddie Jobson didn't produce anything by Yes, but rather he is foremost a talented multi-genre violinist and keyboardist (UK, Roxy Music) as well as producer; but not for Yes. Eddie Offord was Yes' producer of choice for a time.Fine production values do not lessen or dilute this performance. In particular, the version of Polegnala E Toudora presented on this work is wonderfully emotional, and I feel the ambient quality of the recording enhances the experience. Some other recordings I've heard of this song sound a bit flat by comparison.Perhaps a 'purist' would differ, but this is a finely compiled work that I keep going back to.
Is the review positive or negative?
