Ostensibly based on a circus theme, Down to Earth is more "song-y" than Remember the Future or Recycled. Yet even here Nektar shows just how brilliant they are at capturing the essence of prog-rock without the slightest bombast or pretension. Astral Man, Nelly the Elephant, Early Morning Clown and Fidgety Queen are stand-outs here. A beautiful "concept," flawlessly handled.
