I've talked with those who consider this Spirogyra's best, but it doesn't quite reach up there for me. It's quite good though - perhaps a bit more restrained than their earlier work and less outright proggy (quite likely why I don't enjoy it as much). The closing "In the Western World" is a fine epic track, true to Spirogyra's form, and there are no notable shortcomings to really speak of. I just don't get into it as much.
