Well: I give it 5 stars: For Heart. Bought the vinyl when it came out. Wonderful clean sound. Stacks up strong with the ex-Crimsos McDonald & Giles, and Sinfield.
All three cleaned up.
bests John Wetton efforts that I have heard. - and I love the Wetton in good company.
I thought it would be good for children (of all ages). Great musicianship. Poor Fripp: His material lately sounds like he Really should call all his old partners.
Post scriptum: I re-educated myself: Lots of Crimson projects from Stick Men + with David Cross, to A Scarcity of Miracles/KC ProjeKct, the Canada live and many more are Again allowing for a freer Transmission of The (KC) Lamp. Sorry I temporarily tuned out. Jakko/ XXIst Century brought many of us back. This Haskell is a jewel. All those great bands were abused by their management at the time: Not paying the musicians: We lost Rare Bird that way.
Pss. you might notice this humble reviewer occasionally returns. Especially if/as I re-listen and/or get another - in this case - Haskell. I'd be surprised if Jakko didn't reach out to Mr Haskell for the occasional XXIst Century Schizoid Band. Mr Haskell: Duty Calls. You Call Jakko. you Got What It Takes. just maybe wear those old professional ear plugs 😊. a Japanese sword is not the hard steel spine block: it has that delicate edge that it Cuts with. I'd always recommended the young Crimsos: Start checking Haskell here. love your Thought in the 2010 One Day Soon. I paraphrase Haskell: "global warming is to be studied later: The Priority problem is Global Idiocy". Mmm
call Jakko. plz
