Eloy - Ocean (1977, Germany) Space Rock


An all time classic Space rock album, very much on the prog side (as opposed to the psychedelic side) of the space rock spectrum. Very well produced with a very rich oceanic (as the name would suggest) washy sound. There is some great guitar and synth interplay here, when one is creating soundscapes the other is playing lead type melodies and visa versa. I'm also a big fan of the cheesy epic lyrics sung with a thick German accent, I think they add a lot to the character of the album and the theme of oceanic gods and Atlantis is rich and compelling to begin with. This album is essential for any space rock enthusiast.
