It's a very rare occurrence when a band can take a classic album and literally remake it. It happens from time to time, but with the possible exception of 's live version of , it seldom works. Enter and . was the last album -- released in 1980 -- that really showcased in their true form -- had left after 1976's brilliant -- though it was a new direction. The idea behind this was, of course, 's and the result is mixed at best. While it follows the original 's sequence, there is a distraction right from the jump: an insistent, single-pulse rhythm track that does not come from one of their trademark sequencers, but from a pre-programmed drum machine. Adding orchestral elements to fill out the sound takes away the original album's sense of the unexpected and the listener's anticipation. What was once a rich listening experience has become merely a pleasant one. This is not offensive, and it is worth hearing a time or two. If you are a diehard who feels that can do no wrong, you already know you need this. But feels more like a misfire than an extension of a classic recording. ~ Thom Jurek
