This is the story of the Harlequin
A friend of mine that I know pretty well
Seems to him that no one understands
That right now he’s going through hell
Doesn’t it feel like a blessing?
To dance while the sun is rising
But for our friend right here
I Sometimes wonder if I should interfere
So, this is a Blues from above
Let’s hear it folks, it’s a Blues from above
Could it be a Blues from below?
Strange, cuz’ I never heard of a singing demon so...
First comes the hope of an inner desire
Second comes doubt consuming fire
Hope then turns real, such a joyful morning
But curiosity can turn a man upside down
Moments of confused laughter, is this the moment he’ll drown?
Chaos comes next, lurking for sorrow
But for the greater good, redemption he finds

Absolutely hooked on this album from first listen. How rare is that with prog!??? Excellent songwriting and musicianship. Can’t wait to dive into the rest of the collection. Thomas Lock

Ein so seltsames Album ist mir lange nicht mehr untergekommen. Der Track „Blood Of The Rose“ lässt den Hörer die Stirn in Falten ziehen. Eine zuckersüße, liebliche, kitschige Melodie dringt an das Ohr des Hörers. So säuselt der Song eine Weile vor sich hin, bis er plötzlich etwa bei Halbzeit (es handelt sich um einen 10minüter) komplett die Stimmung wechselt und plötzlich mit zupackender Gitarre und Sprech-Gesang in einen floydige Bluesrock-Hymne umschlägt... sehr kurios!

This and Heart of Darkness are my two favorite releases by Mr. Miller. From the opening track Rats in my Darkness the tone for this record is set. Very dark recording, yet still very listenable another strong release by this Canadian .Always a pleasure to support a fellow Canadian. lloydd
