Title: Right stuff, wrong time
Review: I'd agree with the statement made by members of the band that they made what should have been their masterwork at a bad time. The upshot is we are left with a 'draft' of what might have been the best album ever, given a few more revisions. As it is, it's patchy, with rough ideas spoiling absolute sublimity. Their later keyboard player summed it up recently when he said, 'If they'd done it with 90's technology, it would have been incredible'. But with 70s production techniques, it was just too much of a challenge. That said - there is still no better double album in existence than this one.
Is the review positive or negative?
