Although not purely a concept album like 'Book of Kells', the album has several themes upon which much of the material is based. The title track is based around words from Psalm 139, was written at a time when the band were searching for the way forward after the departure of founder member David Fitzgerald.Dave purchased a book called 'Celtic Fire', a book which amongst other things contains the story of St. Brendan and the voyage he reputedly made across the Atlantic ocean in the 6th century with 14 monks in a coracle.Dave Bainbridge and the other members of the band soon became fascinated by this epic story of faith and obedience to God and how it seemed to tie in with the band's thinking at that time.

Beyond These Shores album
 $13.89  
This is the second release by the Christian progressive rock band Iona. Like their first release, and now to a greater degree, Iona's music is quite challenging to listen to. With multi-layered instrumentation, forever changing moods, and lyrics that require constant attention, this music is not easily digested. And this 72-minute album, centered on The Book of Kells, necessitates a thorough listen if one desires to understand and appreciate its concept in total. There's plenty to keep one's interest too, like Joanne Hogg's angelic voice, David Bainbridge's skillful guitar work, or the hypnotic flutes, whistles, and Irish pipes. However, ...

$6.39 
When Jon Anderson rejoined Yes after DRAMA, he was inserting himself into an unusual situation. Keyboardist Geoff Downes and longtime guitarist Steve Howe had left to form Asia with prog rock vets John Wetton (King Crimson, Roxy Music etc.) and Carl Palmer (ELP). Chris Squire and Alan White brought original Yes keysman Tony Kaye back and recruited vibrant young Australian guitarist/vocalist/composer Trevor Rabin. The quartet had already begun writing and recording, but Anderson was able to insert himself into the proceedings with such ease that the new combination sounds completely natural on 90125.
Mostly, the band was concerned with trimming the musical fat to keep pace with the onslaught of the 1980s. Thus, tracks like "Owner of a Lonely Heart" and "City of Love" are full of samples, splices and almost funky beats and riffs. The unusual time changes and complex riffs of tunes like "Changes" and "Cinema" leave little doubt that this is still a Yes album, but the band succeeds in giving their sound a contemporary ...

WAY OUT TO HOPE STREET, the debut effort by Skyedance, announces the arrival of a distinctive world fusion ensemble that brings together Celtic folk forms with elements of modern jazz. Fiddler Alasdair Fraser, piper Eric Rigler, and wooden flautist Chris Norman comprise one half of the group, and it is this instrumentation that gives Skyedance its traditional Celtic feeling.
Yet the other half of the group--keyboardist ...
