Close to the Edge Comments
Harlequin (95/100)2017-03-03
이들의 대표곡이기도 한 Close to the Edge는 싯다르타가 출가하는 과정에 얽힌 이야기를 풀어낸 것이다. 3번 곡의 후반 합주 부분을 들으면 지금도 감히 어떤 밴드가 저런 걸 시도해볼까 경이롭기만 하다. 리마스터 버전 강추
Eagles (95/100)2016-08-05
독보적인 존재감을 자랑하는 예스의 다섯 번째 앨범으로, 프로그레시브 락의 대표적인 명반으로 손꼽힌다. 존 앤더슨, 스티브 하우, 릭 웨이크먼, 크리스 스콰이어, 빌 브루포드라는 최고의 라인업이 뿜어내는 명연의 향연. 깨끗하고 신비로운 서정성과 색채적이고 몽환적인 웅장함이 청자를 압도한다.
