This is largely through his decision to indulge his fascination with history and construct a concept album that begins with \"Old Admirals\" and ends with \"Nostradamus\" and his predictions for the future. A concept like this undoubtedly will strike prog warning bells in the minds of most listeners but, ironically, he has stripped back most of the prog trappings from Orange, settling into a haunting folk bed for these long, winding tales. If anything, this results in an album that is a bit too subdued, but even so, it's apparent that Stewart has finally found his muse, focusing his songwriting and intent to a greater extent than ever before. Now, the key was to find the same sense of purpose in record-making -- he didn't quite get it here, but he would the next time around. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Old Admirals\u003cbr\u003e2.Warren Harding\u003cbr\u003e3.Soho (Needless to Say)\u003cbr\u003e4.The Last Day of June 1934\u003cbr\u003e5.Post World War Two Blues\u003cbr\u003e6.Roads to Moscow\u003cbr\u003e7.Terminal Eyes\u003cbr\u003e8.Nostradamus\u003cbr\u003e9.Terminal Eyes (single version) (Bonus Track)\u003cbr\u003e10.Swallow Wind (Bonus Track)\u003cbr\u003e11.Nostradamus (single version) (Bonus Track)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Esoteric","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48984637604129,"sku":"5013929487543","price":71.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/5013929487543.jpg?v=1715461964","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-ie\/products\/5013929487543","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
