| | Saga Trust CD Saga Discography of CDs
 (11 Customer Reviews)
With a career spanning 30 years, Saga remain something of a torchbearer for the old-school progressive rock scene, a scene that they left at least partially behind for a while but rejoined with renewed vigor and with some tricks learned in the melodic rock trenches. They're not going to win any new converts with Trust; those who shy away from Michael Sadler's bombastic vibrato will still do so when he launches into "That's as Far as I'll Go," and those who find the band's more extravagant flights of musical fancy overly precious won't be won over by "Back to the Shadows" (with its synthesized horn fanfares) or the somewhat overly earnest "My Friend," either. And no one should be willing to put up with the bad Peter Gabriel impersonation that is "Time to Play," a song that is not only embarrassingly derivative but also unforgivably snarky in its putdowns of others' music. However, fans will be sure to enjoy the nice counterpoint between frenetic guitar and keyboard lines and the slower, more languid sung vocals and chord progression on "I'm OK" and the bracing "Ice in the Rain." Lyrics are a problem from time to time (couplets about going back to school and learning the rules are not normally acceptable from songwriters in their forties), but really, Saga are about great sound, and you get plenty of that here. ~ Rick Anderson
This set was recorded in the band's home country of Canada. The CD/DVD set is a feast for all fans of classic, melodic, and progressive rock and is sure to please the die-hard Saga fan base. Saga Trust Songs | 1. | That's as Far as I'll Go |

Trust Music Review Average Rating: (4.4 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews Trust was my first purchase from Saga
I really enjoy the concept. the dvd introduced me to the band. I had to listen to it a couple times to get into it, just like many prog cds, especially never hearing the band before. A good mixture of keys, guitars, basses, and drums. Vocals good. I will be purchasing another Saga cd. There are enough of them aren't there? Don't know how I missed them.

 Great Album!
This is a great album, but the songs are in wrong order. The first track should be Trust, then tracks 7,8 10,9 11,2,3,4,5. The song That's Is Far As I Go, should be a bonus track! This will make an excellent album!

Great New CD
This is another true to the heart Saga CD's. There is only one song that is on the slower side but is also well done

| | Saga Marathon CD (2003)
Trust songs
$14.29 
Like 1999's Full Circle, Marathon offers little more than recycled rock clichés and unfulfilling musical hooks. While 25 years into their existence Saga still had a following, they had become an obvious caricature of themselves -- an unintended Spinal Tap. But unlike on Full Circle, there appears to be a discernible degree of intensity and passion in these songs. Amid the predictable sounds and techniques utilized here, one song, ...
| | Saga Chapters Live CDs (2005)
Trust album
$15.35
The Chapters Live was 28 years in the making. Flash back to 1978: a young Canadian band releases its debut LP, an attempt at bridging the gap between progressive rock and FM radio. Two tracks, "Will It Be You?" and "Tired World," are subtitled Chapters 4 and 6 for no apparent reason. Over the next three LPs, Saga will release a total of eight "chapters," seemingly at random, then drop the project, originally sketched for 16 pieces. In the early 2000s, as the group is getting back on track (literally and figuratively), eight new chapters pop up, spread across three albums. On the Marathon tour in 2003, the group performed the complete "Chapters" sequence, in its right order, a moment fans of Saga had been awaiting for a long time. The sci-fi story revolves around Albert Einstein, revived by aliens so that he can help them save humanity from ...

"Twenty-one" is Flying Burrito Brothers-style country-rock, "Out of Control" is amped-up blues-rock, whereas the title track is a plaintive, melancholic piano ballad (abetted by a string section). Don Henley plays a bigger part on DESPERADO, lending vocals and co-writing much of the material, including the opener "Doolin Dalton" and the lazy, beautiful "Tequila Sunrise," the record's single. The Eagles' sophomore album showed them developing their signature ...
| | Victoria CD (2005)
Trust album
$13.35
Though initially recorded in the late '60s and early '70s, the tracks that make up Victoria's sole release didn't see wide release until nearly 30 years later, seeing a further re-release on Shadoks in 2005. Consisting of a small limited-edition album and a variety of further cuts from tape and acetate, Victoria's appeal lies perhaps most in the sextet's ability to get a lot out of limited resources. Opening cut "Peace" is almost surprisingly lush and detailed, triumphant brass parts mixing in with the exultant rock & roll from the band. From there the 15 songs on the CD wend their way, ranging from gentle contemplation to fuller-bodied affairs, less fried psychedelia than the kind of widescreen pop that coexisted with it. The exact lineup of the band is unclear -- only four people are credited, not all of whom appear to have performed at the same time -- but one Greg Ruban was the core songwriter and arranger, and it's his ability to capture his band surprisingly well that ensures Victoria is more than simply ...
