Only album by British Prog group Arc, which is a typical early Prog effort full of excellent ideas and interesting playing, which didn't met with a particular interest at the time of its release and was discovered years later by connoisseurs of the genre, becoming a rare collectors' item. The band was formed by guitarist John Turnbull and keyboardist Mick Gallagher and included also bassist Tom Duffy and drummer David Montgomery. The album includes several extended tracks featuring heavy guitar and keyboards work with the rest of the material being less complex, but still quite interesting. In retrospect this is one more lost gem of the period, which deserves a renewed listening opportunity, especially by people who like to dig deeply into the history of early Prog.
