+1 All hers are great. Prompted me to dig this one out - slightly different feel with "simple" drums and bass added.

Very, very good prog from the main man of Riverside.
Listening to this on white vinyl - been a while since I last played this, and sounding good for an evening listen.

Cuz I'm in a mood for a bombastic opera. 
Eric Clapton. Behind The Sun. On vinyl from 1985. The SQ is good and so are several songs. Some tracks now play a bit overblown with synth and drum machine sounds so popular at the time.
WAV

Really enjoyable guitar work throughout this very good album.
