Nektar is another of those great bands which their better efforts were released in the early 70&. In 1971 their second album named A Tab in the Ocean with a better and more challenging sound as their first album, giving us a blend of symphonic sound, an strong symphonic sound in my opinion, with also their nature psychedelic sound, a bit alike to their contemporary Eloy for example.

Album · 1972 · 4 Songs. Nektar were always a tough band to pin down; they were Englishmen who operated out of Germany, and their sound mixed elements of psychedelia, prog, hard rock, and space rock. They had their biggest . success with 1973's Remember the Future but first made worldwide waves a year earlier with A Tab in the Ocean. The album's first half is occupied by the epic title track, which encompasses everything from Wagnerian guitar riffs and baroque organ lines to Moody Blues–like vocal harmonies

A Tab in the Ocean mirrors Nektar's first album, but only to a certain degree. While their sound still basks in lengthy keyboard passages and fantastic lyrics, the psychedelia is traded in for a more directional and established approach, with longer tracks and a tighter progressive structure. Both the title track and the 19 minutes of "King of Twilight" are Tab in the Ocean's best examples of Nektar's maturing process,.

This track is an example of the heavier side of early progressive rock, featuring a hammering 3/4 gallop into the heart of the sun interspersed with more gentle, spacey passages. No doubt many drugs were involved in its production.
