Remember the Future is the fourth album of British/German rock band Nektar, a stellar group with a garden variety of experimental sounds and studio prowess. This album sounds like a mix between the hard rock of Led Zeppelin and the classical jazzery of Yes. The guitar playing is immaculate, the drumming never misses a beat, and the keys are pure 70's perfection. And that bass. Lyrics are esoteric and introspective poetry - a perfect fit. This bad lad rocks all the socks. Nektar never gets the love it deserves, although this album charted well in the States upon release. Each side flows as one beautiful song, so maybe not the most radio friendly album, but it's still a masterpiece.
