Berington,

Thank you for the kind words.  I'm glad you liked it.  In case you're curious, the "vacuumish, inside-out" sound on "Turn Around" was actually white noise from a minimoog.  The filter was set to sound sufficiently weird, then run through a Small Stone phase shifter.  I never thought about the Yes influence, but the singer is a huge Yes fan, so it makes sense.

Bernie,

The fourth member...  He died in a bizarre gardening accident. It was really one of those things... the authorities said 'Best leave it unsolved.'

Thanks for listening guys.

Steve
