Review

Led by multi-instrumentalist & producer Mitch Hensdale, this symphonic keyboard driven prog band envokes the late 70's and Frank Hartis has the best vocal qualities of Phil Collins & Jon Anderson without copying either.
After several listens, the only draw back to the overall sound is the electronic drums that Mitch used; it's "tinny" sound sometimes make it abit difficult to really enjoy, especially "Take A Look At Yourself". The lyrics are very uplifting especially "Choices". All the songs are very good on this debut release, I can only see this band getting better.
Mitch has told me via email that they'll have a drummer (accoustic drums) on Legacy's next cd.
I believe this will also allow Mitch to shine as a great keyboardist in the Emerson/Wakeman tradition!
My favorite and perhaps a stand-out track is "West World", very well done keyboard textures.... it has a surrealistic dreamy feel to the intro.
I look forward to it and all the players are very good to excellent. I wish them all the best!
