Well Tony,  I feel better already….

Hang onto that vinyl …yeah….I understandthe re-mastered for CD was not as good, and I’ve seen this vinyl on Ebay forsome “big” bucks.

 

(Ibought it after hearing the part at 2:20 on Carl Sagan’s Cosmos TV program…a part aboutwhales…if I’m not mistaken).

Was cleaning outsome stuff in my house,  boxing up old vinyl’s….(yes…I still have some).

Stumbled uponthis old import album.

Music thatpreceded the ’Trance era…found in the electronic section of the local PenquinFeather store (some of you guys may remember those).

 

Boy, do I feelold now.

Comments as seenon Youtube….

“Edgar Froesecertainly got it right on this LP...one of the best Mellotron-based worksever.”

“One of themost fantastic and greatest albums ever. It inspired me to make an almost allMellotron album of my own. Soft ware is good but that twin mark 5 and m400 aremuch better than mine.”

The old vinyl recording with the great mellotron sequence at the beginning, I found better. She was fantastic, notassynthetic as this new release.
