Title:  Transformation (The Speed of Love)

Date:  1976

Label:  Epic Records   X698

Artwork:  Anthony Tillman

Notes:  This was added as much for the cover art as the music inside. A keyboard led jaunt over familiar ground, it plays easily in the background or foreground as you so desire. The cover art in its palette of tan and gray and orange and yellow has the light of morning And the handled eggs bring impending promise of birth and renewal. A positive image I believe. Or is the "handle" actually a vise there to restrain the life within? Or… Either way it's an interesting image.
