Journey to the Centre of the Eye

Journey to the Centre of the Eye is the debut album from English progressive rock band Nektar which came out in November 1971.

[3] Allmusic's retrospective review stated that "throughout Journey's 13 cuts, Nektar introduced their own sort of instrumental surrealism that radiated from both the vocals and from the intermingling of the haphazard drum and string work."

A double CD reissue of Journey to the Centre of the Eye was released in 2013 on Purple Pyramid Records.

The second CD two includes part of a live 1971 show from Germany, where the band played the entire title song.

(During later tours, exemplified by the 1973 show that appears on the 2021 live album Sounds Like Swiss, Nektar played a heavily abbreviated rendition of the song which ends with the "Dream Nebula" movement.)
