"This band is mainly known because of their more jazz-rock fusion albums that came after their 3rd album when they changed gear towards a more 'commercial' sound. But the first 3 (this is their 2nd) are really original and more in the classical and progressive style. Lots of percussion instruments (vibraphone, orchestral percussion, etc.) mix easily with piano, keys, gt, drums and bass creating a quite unique canadian version of mid seventies progressive rock. Will probably appeal to fans of groups like genesis and french prog groups, but also to fans more into avant garde side of things. Recommended, & check their 3rd (which i like even more) if you like this one."
