_Even In the Quietest Moments_. It's a great album, but it's only got
two tracks which approach actual prog - the excellent title track, and
the lame, half-baked "Fool's Overture".

Does anyone agree with me that Roger Hodgson sounds like what Roger
Waters would sound like after three years of singing lessons?
