Album of the Day

The Light, by Spock's Beard (1995): Jeez, has it been 13 years?!? I still remember ordering this album from the band's first attempt at a website and the ensuing problems (leading to guitarist Alan Morse eventually singing me a chorus of "Country Roads" over the phone) like it was yesterday. It's aged well, in my opinion, and has a special place in my discovery of new (and old, for that matter) prog. That's part of the reason why I think it's my favorite Beard album, although the next few are all excellent. It's a milestone album, no doubt.
