Actually I feel Tormato gets a bad rap! Madrigal is very nice, and Onward
Through the Night is as well. A couple other songs in there are more than
adequate, though the whole recording is quite trebly. And I never could
quite get aboard the whole Circus of Heaven thing...

But Awaken has only gotten deeper and more meaningful for me over the
years. It's the pipe organ that did it for me.

Sorry for the non-Tron content (though I've wondered if there was a lot of
Tron on Going for the One ... I had the Keyboard Magazine interview in
which Rick talked at length about those sessions, but I've long since
misplaced it).
