I've only listened to Fresh Aire's fifth album, but from that (and from
various other similar idea groups, e.g. Sky) it strikes me that these
types of groups lack a good solid background in current popular music
because they don't realize what is old hat (i.e. BORING) from that style.
I mean I enjoy listening to such music every now and then because it does
have a unique flavour (ooh, such imagery!), but then I have hundreds of albums
that offer different aspects of popular music and do it much better.  In
other words, I enjoy their music much more when they do something other than
emulate simplistic popular styles.

Of course, Fresh Aire does have a few other albums.  Could someone who
has these summarize what Fresh Aire I-V are all about, please.  Thanks.
