I got into Starcastle about the same time as I was discovering Styx, Kansas and Saga. Fountains of Light is an absolute classic, daft lyrics and all, despite what the band thinks of the production. The first track, the 10 minute Fountains, is perhaps my favourite track of any band, ever, and there are a handful of others up there in the top 50 or so.
The debut is pretty good, although I just don't like Lady of the Lake at all. Citadel was kind of mixed, 4 tracks I can listen to of which Shadows of Song and Change in Time are particularly strong.
I barely got through 1 listen of Real to Reel. Not even the fine final track was able to save that one.
Song of Time, meh - did nothing for me unfortunately.
I did buy the Rock Candy remasters and I'm sad to hear the band does not profit accordingly.
