The brainchild of Magenta keyboard player Rob Reed, the album is to be titled Beneath The Waves. And, for Reed, it’s been a lengthy labour of love. “It’s ridiculous, but it has taken three years to get things finished. The project has been massive, the idea being to emulate what people like Mike Oldfield, Peter Gabriel and Kate Bush used to do. “This is classic prog with Celtic influences. It’s a concept album, and hopefully will appeal to those who enjoy War Of The Worlds, Dark Side Of The Moon and Tubular Bells.”
