 Detailed Reviews [Gratto - 2002 - "Anakin Tumnus"] - ProgressoR   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
"Anakin Tumnus" is the only album by the American band Gratto, which was active in the second half of the 1990s and, apart from composer, keyboardist, and vocalist whose last name was used as the name of the band, featured two former members of Leger De Main: the Rodler brothers (see line-up above).
When I saw that this output consists of three long songs, one of which is of an epic sidelong nature, I thought it should be in the vein of the classic Progressive Rock albums released at the heyday of our beloved genre and was in many ways correct in that supposition.
"Anakin Tumnus" is of those absolute masterpieces where the quality of music remains always stably high, and distinct originality is only one of the numerous values of them.
