Too. Many. Songs. Kaleidoscope just had 5 songs and it was really good. I really doubt that having this many songs is necessary. Would have too much break in the flow.

But Kaleidoscope had two long epics, this will have a lot of shorter songs since it's a double concept album. The two discs are both a little over 50 minutes, so just half an hour longer than Kaleidoscope.

It was just good, and this one is so much better. The amount of songs doesn't really matter when you listen to the album completely and not song by song.

I know Morse keeps recycling his vocal lines (and his choruses always ends in the same delay and a second interval either upwards or downwards), but man - if he thinks I won't notice the blatant copying of the chorus in Freedom Song from the "Ride the Lightning" section of Kaleidoscope by hiding it behind a country rhythm, he's delusional.

Good album though.

Giving this another chance, Neal's long albums have always been a bit of a chore to listen to. I'm still on cd 1, I wonder if I can/will listen to the whole album in one sitting.
