Beyond the Crystal Sea by Jimmy Hotz

Classic prog-rock fans rejoice. If you know anything about Christian art rock, then you probably already know about this legendary album. Some would almost say mythical, because it was pretty hard to find for a while (even though copies were available on Hotz’s website for those that cared to search). Comparisons to ArkAngel, Pink Floyd, Yes, and Kemper Crabb are all well deserved. The re-mastered sound on this re-issue is far superior to any bootleg version out there. And where did they did up those two bonus tracks? They don’t sound like throw away tracks at all. They sound like they were just two songs accidentally left off the original release. Many thanks to Born Twice records (sub-label of Retroactive) for resurrecting this classic album.
