Except for "Time Vaults" [which unfortunately sounds like it was recorded on an Edison disk}, all of their albums are a treat. If you like King Crimson, you will probably like Van Der Graaf Generator. Like many prog acts of the time, many of their recordings exceed 8 minutes."The Quiet Zone/The Pleasure Dome" is their last studio album of the 1970's. With some line-up changes, they dropped the "Generator" from their name, and came up with an album of shorter, more commercial songs, a bit like the Yes album "Tormato". Peter Hammill's songwriting is terrific, as usual. His ideas condensed into shorter songs almost makes this sound like a Peter Hammill solo album. Almost like his album "Nadir's Big Chance".This Van Der Graaf rocks a bit. In fact, there are hints of punk here and there. It was a confusing time for music. Nobody was sure what would sell, and bands like Van Der Graaf, Yes and Gentle Giant explored shorter songs, perhaps thinking that the record buying public was developing a shorter attention span.I am pleased to have gotten the EMI/Virgin edition of this CD, as it has 3 bonus tracks I've not heard or possessed before. It has the studio versions of "Door" and "Ship Of Fools" (not the Grateful Dead song!). These two songs were B sides of singles. There are live versions of these two songs on "Vital" (recorded on the "Quiet Zone" tour), but I've never heard the studio versions until today. Very nice! It reminded me a little of Be Bop Deluxe in a more psychotic state! The third bonus track is an instrumental demo of "The Wave", which, honestly does nothing for me in this form.If you have all the old Van Der Graaf Generator albums, you may as well get this one and "Vital". Have fun. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for Van der Graaf fans *by V***. on Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2020* This is a must have for Van der Graaf fans. Not the best of their albums, but a worthy part of the collection. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quiet Zone/Pleasure Dome *by J***. on Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2007* After "World Record", gone were Hugh Banton and Dave Jackson, in were Graham Smith (violin) and Nic Potter (bass).Hence the aptly named "Van Der Graaf." The result was a more stripped down approach.Dare I say it, but this may be their most accessable album.If you consider how prolific Peter Hammill was at this time (1975/1976),and how he maintained the high quality of songwriting/performance, it makes this release that much more incredible!! This remastered reissue is a delight.It's augmented with three bonus tracks.EMI/VIRGIN is to be commended on the whole Peter Hammill/VDGG reissue series to date..Being in the U.S.A. this title hasn't been released here yet(import only),but it is worth every cent..
