Personnel: Vangelis (vocals, keyboards, synthesizer); David Coker, Sally Grace, Jon Anderson (vocals); Raphael Preston (guitar); Dick Morrissey (flute, saxophone); Claire Hamill, Carol Kenyon (background vocals). Recording information: Davout Studios, Paris, France; Nemo STudios, London, England. Illustrator: Rosemary Harrison. Photographer: Veronique Skawinska. Arranger: Vangelis. The second album-length collaboration between Jon Anderson and Vangelis is almost perfect in its blending of elements; it's only when the pair tries to do some serious rocking on "Back to School" that things take a bit of a nosedive. Other than that, though, there are some classic cuts to be found on this record, including the breathtaking "I'll Find My Way Home," "State of Independence" (which became a popular tune to cover), and the brilliantly optimistic "Mayflower," which catapults the listener into a star-traveling future. Grand stuff. ~ Steven McDonald
