Description
• Gatefold vinyl LP edition of the 2025 mix of this classic album.
• With fully restored artwork.
• Cut at AIR Studios, London.
Originally issued in November 1972, the album was the second release by Nektar and was a milestone for the band as it set the template that would bring them success in both Germany and the USA.
Featuring just four pieces, the album's first side is dominated by the extensive title track which was a progressive rock tour de force. The remaining tracks, 'Desolation Valley / Waves', 'Crying In The Dark' and 'King Of Twilight' also became Nektar classics. An admirer of this album was Steve Harris of Iron Maiden; his band would cover 'King Of Twilight' on the B-side of their 'Aces High' single in 1984.
This new mix by Ben Wiseman used the original master tapes and was warmly greeted by fans and critics when first released on CD in 2025. This vinyl edition was cut at AIR Studios in London and presents this acclaimed mix housed in a gatefold sleeve, reproducing the original LP artwork.
