Label: ARION RECORDS
ALBUM REVIEW
Seventh album from this superb Tennessee based prog band. "Lex Rex" is another concept album whipped up by multi-instrumentalists Steve Babb and Fred Schendel with the aide of Charlie Shelton (Somnambulist), David Carter (Wyzards), Bjorn Lynne ao. Gone are the whiney vocals that held Chronometree back from the plateau of greatness. This album features all the pyrotechnic keyboard work you could possibly crave this side of Close To The Edge. Steve and Fred have honed their craft to the point where they may well be the best pure symphonic rock band in the world. This is old school prog done right. Fans of Yes, Kansas and ELP take note. (Just for Kicks)
