Gone To Earth is one of the sweetest records of the late 70s which was in stark contradiction with the punk avalanche that began to enter through all the windows. Of course very prog rock is not that this work can be described as the band had oriented towards more prog pop sounds.
The lp opens with one of the classic themes of the work of BJH, the wonderful Hymn, an old theme from the year 71 by John Lees, with 12 strings and vowels of infarction for that ode against the drug that so many precarious minds has taken Theme with epic dyes without the development being heavy thanks to that way Gibb to fill the voices (similarity with the Bee Gees of Trafalgar or Odessa) Love is like a Violin, it is a ballad prelude that is taking a more rocker body still The air of the Moodies is to give you a vote of confidence; Otherwise, Friend of mine is another wonderful trip to those country sounds and angelic voices with sensational guitar riffs. One of the most high and commercial points of the lp signed by Les Holroyd that sweeps the Rhythm and Blues Hard Hearted Woman.
The rest of the album contains great songs where Spirit on the Water, the progressive Sea of Tranquility and Poor man's Moody Blues stand out.
