Here are a few examples of what the newspapers said about the album across the world back in 1978. I posted them here because I find them interesting to see what others say.

With much thanks to Jeff Wayne

WHAT THE PAPERS SAID 1978

'GRIPPING, ALLMOST SPELL-BINDING - IT DESERVES CONSIDERATION FOR A GRAMMY'
WILLIAM D. LAFFLER - UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL (USA)

'ONE OF THE MOST UNUSUAL, BUT MUSICALLY BRILLIANT ALBUMS EVER TO BE PRODUCED'
BILL AYRES (ON THE SCENE - MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA)

'A COLOSSAL ENTERPRISE CARRIED OUT BRILLIANTLY BY A MULTI-TALENTED COMPOSER, MUSICIAN, JOURNALIST AND PRODUCER. A MASTERPIECE OF ITS GENRE'
ROMANDIE HEBDO (SWITZERLAND)

'A HISTORY MAKING RECORDING OF EPIC PROPORTIONS. IT IMMEASURABLY OUTSTRIPS ANY COMPARATIVE RECORDING IN STANDARD OF MUSIC, DRAMATIC IMPACT AND QUALITY OF ENGINEERING, MIXING AND EFFECTS'
DAILY MERCURY (QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA)

'WAYNE'S COMPOSITION AND ORCHESTRATION IS ELEGANT, CONPREHENSIVE, MELODIC THROUGHOUT AND SUCCULENT TO THE MOST DIVERSE OF TASTES'
LES MURRAY - THE SUN (UK)

'ITS A WORK OF GENIUS'
TELE MUSTIQUE (FRANCE)

Were there any bad ones? I could imagine some snobs attacking Essex and Lynott's performances.

Those no-gooders simply don't know anything about music, although they say so. To me, everything in WOTW was perfect!
