"When I purchased this disc I wasn't looking for another "Remember The Future" or "Tab In The Ocean". I wasn't expecting to hear "Recycled" or "Down To Earth" or even "Magic Is A Child". I'm not stuck in the '70's and I didn't expect Nektar to stay there either. What I expected to hear was a project that reflected the fact that much time has passed since those excellent earlier efforts and hopefully the band members had lived and matured through the following decades as I had. This recording is an excellent effort and deserves to be appreciated for what it is. "Terminus/Oh My", "Now" and "The Drinking Man's Wine" will most assuredly tell you what this project is all about. I for one really enjoy the more mature and reflective lyrics. Roye Albrighton's vocals are still forceful and unique - unmatched in all rock music. The arrangements are excellent. Taff Freeman's keyboards are still rock-solid and innovative. And, if you listen closely, you can still pick out a few of the signature chord changes and background riffs that make Albrighton's guitar work exciting to listen to. This is an overall excellent recording."
