Tai Phong are basically French Indochina's (historical reference...) version of Yes. On their second album Windows, one will hear some fantastic quality instrumental work, for example on both the opener and closer, as well as on 'Circle'. The high pitched male voice (sounding every bit like a female) is also perfect for the setting. Yes of course, there is some pop slop to sit through like on 'Games' and 'Last Chance'. So it's not perfect by any means, but certainly not bad at all in the aggregate. Worth owning for fans of the genre.
Personal collection
LP: 1976 Warner Bros.
The fine textured gatefold cover makes me want to keep this one longer than others of its ilk.
