What you should know:
1. This work was done in 1979 for the Festival of Mind-Body-Spirit
at the Olympia, London (April 21-29 1979), and was dedicated to "the
universal spirit of New Age synthesis"

2. Alex Patterson claims to have used this album extensively when
he started his mad journey into ambient.

3. If the names are familiar, they should be. Giraudy and Hillage
comprise System 7.

4. The tracks sound like a cross between "Ship of the Desert" and
"Back Side of the Moon" without beats or samples

5. It is abso-fucking-lutely fantastic!! The _best_ ambient music
recording around. Not at all sickening new age, and very ahead of
its time

6. Out of print on lp, it is now available from pretty much anywhere
(on CD) that uses a major distributor that carries Caroline. If you
know
what's good for you get it now.

7. FInal note: Hillage keeps his sickening new age guitar crap to a
bare minimum (I wish I could say the same for System 7!)
