This absolutely delightful record is an incredibly successful mix of medieval ambiances, stunning 60s folk rock, slight Indian music influences, the whole thing sprinkled with a tad of hippy idealism and great progressive arrangements including the odd Mellotron. From the opening Waren Wir to the closing Traum (dream), the album is invitation fly out of our realm and head for Nirvana, paradise, Eden, Babylon, with flaunts of flutes, loads of Hamonds, Trons of Mello, guitars strings by the dozens and superb vocals both male and female. If you cannot find a suitable album to get comfy and shag the partner, try this one and do not forget to put the repeat (the album is fairly short), and the trick is half-done. To name a highlight would be quite difficult, as youd be doing injustice to the other non-mentioned tracks. Not a weak note on this album. Nanny de Ruygs voice is right up with the cannons of the genre and the German lyrics are simply heavenly music for the mind. -- Sean Trane@progarchives.com
