This 2014 two-fer from combines the first two albums by , a Glasgow prog band comparable to . Released in 1970, is dense, classically influenced, and aggressively carnivalesque, anchored in ambitious set pieces ("Raymonds Road" and "Light Cavalry" clock in at nearly 12 minutes, then there are two other cuts hovering around the seven-minute mark) but the indulgence is charming and often compelling. , released the following year, isn't quite so rococo as it sways between long pieces and brief palate cleansers, often evoking the pastoral aspects of late-'60s British psychedelic even if it unquestionably resides in the heady world of the early '70s, where every idea was attempted, no matter if it was good or bad. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
