just throwing it out there, album was made from 1987. As 1986 came to be, it was the year that sound had coherently improved to its finest form. As years went on, sound engineering became more sharper and mastered. Just put your ears closely and listen; then you will see.
The YellowJackets represent what love is, unity and are messengers of the universe for all of humanity. It is truly ashame that not all of humanity can understand this music but those that do should be truly privileged and blessed. Their music is nature, the beauty of creation itself and the vastness that yet awaits us in the universe. Words cannot describe the importance of their message, but if you listen like I always do, you are inspired, lifted, blessed and filled with strength to move on.
I'd known about and listened to the YJs before I bought this album in '89, but this was the track that sealed the deal and produced some real love for the YJs. This cut is some mind and mood transformin' stuff. I still get chills almost 23yrs later. Timeless...
even if u know nothing about music...u just have to love this...feel like I'm floating on notes...to anywhere your imagination wants to take you...wow!
I practice my guitar (Robbin Ford type playing) to this song.........it is a wonderful and a complex tune that is wide open for runs and minor 3rd bends.......
what a so subtil fusion band. I hear this song with a great happyness. the chords progression on the beginning is heavenly clear and gorgeous. one of the most significant song for this band. thks thks
It always makes me think about all the amazing things I will never see in my lifetime...like ice caps of Europa... the bad lands and ocher mountains of Titan... the shifting crimson sands of mars.... the tumultuous storms of Jupiter....and a girl I told all this to that didn't live much longer after that.
Incredible creativity and mastery of the craft of musicianship. Ive never gotten tired of this arrangement. Its got a funky bottom and a whimsical top with that serious yj background drone that makes you let go and feel the love of music. I would love to see a DCI band arrange this track for competition.
Oh! am i dreaming? am i swimming with the whales in the open ocean? am i on
a journey to the moon? one can ask all these questions, yes you might be for a
moment floating in the sky with the great albatros migrating from the south to the
north. that's what this tune does only if you just set yourself free & think about nothing but the beauty of nature, hence the title of the song. just close your eyes
