Very underappreciated, I think. "Roads To Moscow," "Modern Times," "The Dark And The Rolling Sea" should all be required listening. Awesome music, lyrics--and there's so much more!

Covered it in the late 70s in a band.
I still mess around with it doing both piano & guitar versions. Really fun to play.
