A Space in Time was Ten Years After's seventh and best-selling album. More pop-oriented in feel than any of their previous releases and the individual cuts are shorter, and Alvin Lee displays a broader instrumental palette than before. In fact, six of the disc's ten songs are built around acoustic guitar riffs.
However, there are still a couple of barn-burning jams. The leadoff track, "One of These Days," is a particularly scorching workout, featuring extended harmonica and guitar solos. After the opener, however, the album settles back into a more relaxed mood than one would have expected from Ten Years After.
Many of the cuts make effective use of dynamic shifts, and the guitar solos are generally more understated than on previous outings.
The production on A Space in Time is crisp and clean, a sound quite different from the denseness of its predecessors
