On the awesome scale of 1-10, easily an 11. https://open.spotify.com/album/4g1iopKeyhjN1a9bgpa4GD?si=88QrSGXkQlClC3xPUY_R9w

How can you have highlights? There is only the entire double album, surely?

Couldn't tell, just recently discovered this and blown away!

I bought it on cassette when it came out (June 1978), then on vinyl for the gatefold and booklet, then on CD. 😁

I was almost 16 when it came out so it's kind of always been part of my life. It was absolutely groundbreaking at the time. High concept, high production values. A new take on "rock opera"...

The operatic nature reminds me a bit of Avantasia, have you heard this? https://open.spotify.com/album/5YjtryDPR0CWnBNRowJCiC?si=Tj4ILj8nS8OPm5w70l9M8w

Hadn't heard of them... They've had some interesting guest singers over the years!
