Query: The genius of collaboration

Bill Bruford and co delivered a progressive masterpiece of an album. Half vocal, and half instrumental, with pointy melodies and exquisite musicianship, it is an album that deserves to be far more widely lauded than it is. Perhaps it's those pointy melodies. It does take some getting used to, particularly when Jeff Berlin's voice is such a strange instrument. But persist you must, for persistence rewards you with an appreciation of the brilliance of how such musicianship can serve songs rather than detract from them.
