I don't want to eat Kit's lunch but this is an absolutely sensational album cover. The best one yet by a mile. I want it as a poster. I'd never heard of this album before! It's really good. We've had a few other albums that open with twenty minute songs and it hasn't gone as well as this did. The album is all over the place, tons of different sounds and interesting moments. I really love hearing piano and this album has it in spades. My favorite songs are "Tarkus", "Jeremy Bender", and "Are You Ready Eddy?". The run-time was great. The energy kept up and the sounds never got stale. There were a few songs that were only OK for me, so I think that keeps me from giving it a 9/10. This is a very strong 8/10. 8/10
