From the first one which was quite the little masterpiece as mentioned before-- I would qualify the above though by mentioning it's more the acoustic style of prog, with some simple songs, and not so much in the complex, symphonic style-- I think the most successful multiple-listens composition is Walking on the Grass which I can enjoy repeatedly to this day:
The second one of course as you can tell from the cover reverted to smooth, commercial, and accessible fusion. I think it would've been shocking had he continued in the same hippie-prog acoustic vein, given the zeitgeist of the eighties. Nonetheless, there's a lot to like in here. It's not quite the same consistent level of quality as what happened with Argentinian Carlos Franzetti where the 1980 album Galaxy Dust just knocked it out of the ballpark despite the late year, but it's worth hearing as long as you try not to compare it to his earlier mid-70s masterpiece.
De vuelta a la esperanza is for me the best track on this one:

Totalmente de acuerdo. Nada que ver. Aunque el tercer tema tenga reminiscencias a Hocus Pocus, el primer disco es mucho más creativo queel segundo, demasiado previsible
