I'd recommend this to anyone who loved 70s prog bands like Gensesis, Yes and Pink Floyd. The sound is retro without being dated, and forgive me for saying is much better than the latest material we have had from the bands of the prog heavy weights appearing as guests.
The album has a set of main songs divided by shorter instrumentals. The songs revolve around a typical prog concept - but don't let that put you off. This is great stuff and works equally well on a personal level. Check out the bands web site for audio samples and some free downloads.

Imagine a lineup of Banks, Squire and Bruford with Howe and Hackett sharing lead, playing stuff from around the Yes Album / Nursery Cryme era. Add something approximating to Anderson (but more interesting) with guest spots from Wakeman and Mel Collins in his Camel days (the previous album was even more Camel-ish), then add a hint of Porcupine Tree / Radiohead and that's the sort of sound you can expect from this great album. I picked up on BBT after they appeared on some freebie sampler with a music mag. That one track aroused my interest and I wasn't disappointed when I invested in this recording. Every track is either a huge masterpiece or a short interlude type mini-masterpiece. Also and unusually, it gets better and better as the album progresses. The final two tracks are absolutely magnificent. I has permanent status at position CD1 in my car multi-changer and even my younger daughter (18) thinks it's "lovely" - praise indeed ! If you enjoyed the prog heydays of the 70's but have been a bit disappointed by more recent stuff by those bands or newer bands of that ilk, try this album - you'll not be disappointed. Five stars.

With this cd I think that B.B.T. add a different pearl to their musical path.There are always elements of their delicate and traditional prog,but this time, musical solution is more articolate , powerful and the presence of wind-instruments sometime gives a touch of jazz to sound of composition .In the band play also members of Spock's Beard, but is all cd that seems me more mature .Thanks to Mr.Greg Spawton and all performers that play The Difference Machine as a very ,very good prog work!
