Notes:  When this album came out I was planning on working in a recording studio after college (boy did I get that one wrong) and when I saw the back cover of this album I was in rapture. A lengthy list of Moog components, recorders, mixers etc... used during the recording of this record. It was filled with music, the like of I'd never heard before. Tone poems, orchestral without the orchestra, it opened a whole new world of sound to me. I've played it recently and although some of the sounds appear a bit dated it was still a fine piece of music. The front cover art makes for an interesting juxtaposition; nature without, unnatural within.
