2014 reissue of this 1976 album created to mark the landing on Mars of Nasa’s Viking 2 Explorer in September of that year.
For the sessions, saxophonist and woodwind player Jack Lancaster and keyboard player Robin Lumley were joined by John Goodsall, Percy Jones and Phil Collins, and the album paved the way for the formation of Brand X soon after.
