Well recorded, well played, straightforward yet intricate, ‘The Zealot Gene’ represents the best elements of the current Jethro Tull / Ian Anderson sound.

Mike Tiano’s recently released progressive-rock LP ‘Creetisvan’ features contributions from David Sancious, Randy George and Billy Sherwood.

Projekt Gemineye’s ‘In the Year 3073’ trilogy has been an invigorating ride, with an ending which more than exceeds expectation.

Caravan gets a chance to “do it all over again” with ‘It’s None of Your Business’ – and thankfully, they “do it all over again” really quite well.

On Burnt Belief’s ‘Mutual Isolation,’ the music takes another step forward in the band’s progression with a relative ‘back to basics’ approach. That’s all due to the limitless creativity and musicianship of Colin Edwin and Jon Durant.

Professor Tip Top’s ‘Tomorrow Is Delayed’ is an excellent album which leaves its own footstep on the dark side of any distant moon.

As good as previous Pink Floyd vinyl reissues are, ‘A Momentary Lapse of Reason: Remixed & Updated’ is quite unique.

If Projekt Gemineye’s forthcoming ‘In the Year of 3073: Book II’ continues the theme and musical glory of this first single, we are in for a treat.

Spoiler alert: There’s not an electric guitar to be found on Renaissance’s ‘Scheherazade and Other Stories.’ But that is a big part of the charm.

Of course, any Pink Floyd novice should check out the actual album, but these star-packed reinterpretations of ‘Animals’ songs are pretty cool.
