Not an easy task, given the amalgamated nature of the original, yet the cleverly combined participants rose to the challenge by gently projecting their easily recognizable, albeit reined in, individual styles onto the large canvas woven way back in 1975. Those attentive aficionados included their peers and followers that are present here to recreate the classic platter in its entirety and, as this discвЂ™s subtitle suggests, show the utmost respect the ensemble behind it. Paradoxically, вЂњWish You Were HereвЂќ was also its creatorsвЂ™ most concerted studio effort, casting aside вЂ“ or, rather, sacrificing вЂ“ both their differences and thematic grandeur in favor of something deeply personal for each of the players, and, as it turned out, for every listener as well. Never has a remote method of recording, the cheap approach of recent years, been so relevant and on the money as on this album, laid down in isolation вЂ“ a homage to the concept work whose very pivot was absence.

Shedding a loving light on a progressive rockвЂ™s imposing milestone, the genreвЂ™s elite forces bring afresh its precious shining to the fore.
