Prog rock, but not at its finest. Former member of Gong who I vaguely remember. Went solo in '75, and this is his third solo album. After a few more efforts, that career didn't do so hot so Steve ended up doing some producing. Most notably Robyn Hitchcock and Simple Minds. The guy might be a good guitarist, but he should have stayed with that. I see he is into the ambient sound now. Ended up liking four tracks here, with five total bombs. All those 70's prog rock bands sounds sneak in here, primarily Yes imo. My favorite track I ended up choosing because it sounds like Syd Barrett. Don't see where the album even charted here in the states. Very nice live clip closing this out, which almost made me change my grade. If I didn't have the Stones version in my head, I probably would have.
