Negative Positive
Title: RETRO GRADE
Review: Yes, this does seem to be a tribute to the 80's, but unfortunately, we have all been busy trying to FORGET the 80's!Had this release taken the genre a step in ANY direction, it might have succeded, but I'm going to have to agree that there are many better ways to spend your money. Roger Manning's solo (which version do you like?) is certainly more like what I'd hoped to hear here.The MAGIC, the WHIMSY, and the COMPLEXITY of the old Jellyfish recordings certainly is not apparent here. Todd Rundgren fans have had to suffer the same fate. It's as if they don't want to be creative magicians anymore, screw the fans that got them this far, etc. etc.ANYTHING released with the JELLYFISH name on it, domestic, european, or Sub-Tabla are better than this.OK, this is better than the MOOG COOKBOOK....
Is the review positive or negative?
