  • Starting at 6:00 is some of the best instrumental work in music.

  • Truly one of the most stunning instrumental passages in the world at 6:00, and one of the greatest guitar solos ever courtesy of Tim Renwick - no flash, just a tremendous lyrical quality.

  • Charlie Chaplin,Harpo Marx,Metropolis and this song is the spirit for my modern times ! What counts is timeless. Thank' for posting this fitting song,uploader !!

  • Listened to this hundreds of times in the seventies lying on the floor with my headphones on over and over. Tim Renwick kicks ass!!!

  • that's not the cover I remember from this album.

  • This song has not only led me to being an even greater Al Stewart fan but also a big Andrew Powell fan. His powerful orchestratral arrangement is perfect!! Powell's work on this song, "Year of the Cat", and "Time Passages" led me to his work with Cockney Rebel, The Alan Parsons Project, Kate Bush, and John Miles.

  • The one dislike is from the string Tim broke @ 6:31

  • Best song ever written.

  • Fabulous song - I've always thought that the hopeful traveller from the "Dark And The Rolling Sea" is the bitter, disillusioned man in New York who has no need for the tricks of "Modern Times". I echo all the opinions of Tim Renwick's guitar playing - how it lifts this song at the end is really majestic.

  • I have lissent to his songs in more than 20years and i still love Them

  • @goginetTV

    Thank you !

  • Im reading that this track sounds alittle quick..from the album.. Im not sure.. either way it is still magic..
