The lenghty suite on side 2 The Fall of The House of Usher is another highlight, although I find this a little too easy for my complicated tastes. However, the music is really endearing and Raven is my fave on here and Doctor Tarr not lagging far behind. Tales is the only APP album that approaches prog in the strict sense of the term. A concept album does not make for a prog record (although there are solid prog overtones and it is a very symphonis affair) because then The Who and Pretty Things should then be included. This UFO appeared early in my record-buying carreer and it still remains a soft spot in my ears, although I find APP a bit out of the scope of the ProgArchives.
