• Album on Wikipedia
• Progarchives review (4.27)

####Potential Discussion Questions:

• For a Canterbury record, this one sure is, err, heavy? Some of these riffs sound like Black Sabbath or something. How does Khan's brand of Canterbury compare to the scene as a whole?

• How would you personally rate the album?

• Are there any moments on the album you consider particularly strong or particularly weak (i.e., favourite/least favourite moments)?
