On January 1, 1976, Rolling Stone magazine called the debut album by West Virginian prog-rock pioneers Crack The Sky ''...one of year's most impressive debuts.'' On August 21, 2018, Rolling Stone wrote ''Crack the Sky: the Strange Survival Story of the Best U.S. Prog Band You've Never Heard.'' They were named by Rolling Stone in their 2015 list of 50 Greatest Prog Rock Albums Of All Time and in their 20 Rock Albums Rolling Stone Loved in the 1970s That You Never Heard, the magazine's very fi rst review in 1976 went on to compare the band to Steely Dan, 10cc, The Tubes, Ian Hunter, and the inimitable Davie Bowie.

Today, some 40 years later the band released new music, 12 new genre-defying Crack tracks, Living In Reverse on August 24, 2018 on Loud & Proud Records. The vinyl version is now being made available via Record Store Day Black Friday.
