I recorded all guitar parts using my Ibanez RG3550MZ Prestige and all the bass parts were recorded using my ESP LTD B5e.  The drums and synth parts were done in Reason's virtual instruments.  I emulated the mid synth solo using the guitar and some effects.

CLOSE TO THE EDGE

I – THE SOLID TIME OF CHANGE

A seasoned witch could call you from the depths of your disgrace
And rearrange your liver to the solid mental grace,
And achieve it al l with music that came quickly from afar
Then taste the fruit of man recorded losing all against the hour

And assessing points to nowhere leading every single one,
A dewdrop can exalt us like the music of the sun
And take away the plain in which we move and choose the course you’re

Running down at the edge, round by the corner,
Not right away, not right away
Close to the edge, down by a river
Not right away, not right away

Crossed a line around the changes of the summer
Reaching out to call the colour of the sky,
Passed around a moment clothed in mornings faster than we see
Getting over all the time I had to worry
Leaving all the changes far from far behind
We relieve the tension only to find out the master’s name.

Down at the end, round by the corner
Close to the edge, just by the river
Seasons will pass you by.

I get up. I get down.

Now that it’s all over and done
Now that you find, now that you’re whole.

II – TOTAL MASS RETAIN

My eyes convinced eclipsed with the younger moon attained with love
It changed as almost strained amidst clear manna from above.
I crucified my hate and held the word within my hand
There’s you, the time, the logic, or the reasons we don’t understand.

Sad courage claimed the victims standing still for all to see
As armoured movers took approach to overlook the sea
There since the cord, the license, or the reasons we understood will be

Down at the edge, close by a river
Close to the edge, round by the corner
Close to the end, down by the corner
Down at the edge, round by the river.

Sudden call shouldn’t take away the startled memory
All in all the journey takes you all the way.
As apart from any reality that you’ve ever seen and known.
Guessing problems only to deceive the mention,
Passing paths that climb halfway into the void
As we cross from side to side we hear the total mass retain.

Down at the end, round by the corner
Close to the end, down by the river.
Seasons will pass you by.

I get up. I get down.

III – I GET UP I GET DOWN

In her white lace she could clearly see
The lady sadly looking saying that she’d take the blame
For the crucifixion of her domain.

Two million people barely satisfy
Two hundred women watch one woman cry too late.

Thru the duty she would coil their said
Amusement of her story asking only

Interest could be laid
Upon the children of her Domain.

The eyes of honesty can achieve
How many millions do we deceive
Each day?

I get up. I get down
I get up. I get down

In charge of who is there in charge of me
Do I look on blindly and say I see
The way?

The truth is written all along the page
How old will I be before I come of age
For you?

I get up. I get down.
I get up. I get down.
I get up. I get down.
I get up. I get down.
I get up. I get down.

IV – SEASONS OF MAN

The time between the notes relates the colour to scenes,
A constant vogue of triumphs dislocate man so it seems,
And space between the focus shape ascend knowledge of love
As song and chance develop time lost social temperance rules above

Then according to the man who showed his outstretched arm to space,
He turned around and pointed revealing all the Human race,
I shook my head and smiled a whisper knowing all about the place.

On the hill we viewed the silence of the valley

Called to witness cycles only of the past
And we reach all this with movements in between the said remark

Close to the edge, down by the river.
Down at the end, round by the corner.
Seasons will pass you by
Now that it’s all over and done
Called to the seed right to the sun
Now that you find now that you’re whole
Seasons will pass you by.

I get up. I get down.
I get up. I get down.
I get up. I get down.

Message from cover artist Roger Dean:
Hello everyone! Good news, out now is the album ‘Wondrous Stories: The Best of Yes’, it was originally released in 2011 with a cover I didn’t know about or approve. Both Demon who released it and Rhino were very helpful in putting right the situation, and the two cd set has been re-released with a cover specially made based on an updated view of the ‘Fragile’ world. This was a closer match to the colours and shapes in the first Yessong painting “Escape”.

 • 12 Albums on 13 CDS

THRESHOLD - Watchtower On The Moon

미국 네오 프로그레시브락밴드 스팍스비어드의 2010년 앨범. 2006년 동명타이틀 앨범 [Spock's Beard] 이후 4년만에 돌아온 본 작은 앨범 타이틀에서도 드러나듯이 통산 열 번째 작품으로 멤버 개개인의 역량이 충실히 녹아있는 완성도 높은 작품이다. 시작을 알리는 10분여의 대곡 “Edge of the In-Between”을 시작으로 4부작으로 이루어진 17분여의 대곡 “From the Darkness”, 대미를 장식하는 또 하나의 4부작 대곡 “Jaws of Heaven”까지 Neal Morse 없이 발표한 작품들 중 단연 최고임에 틀림없는 수작.

Peter Gabriel's Shock the Monkey is probably one of the most recognized tracks from his fourth solo album recorded between spring 1981 and summer 1982. This was one of the first tracks to use sampling technology utilizing the ground breaking Fairlight CMI and and other classic machines such as the Linn Drum and the Prophet 5 synth. You can hear these sounds throughout the sample pack.

"...people saw that as a sort of animal rights song, but it wasn't actually it was a song about jealousy."

"Richard Williams was born in Jonesville, Florida, in 1887. When he was nine, he tried unsuccessfully to play his cousin’s banjo, but decided he would rather learn to play the guitar. Ella Mae (Williams) Wilson was born March 28, 1921, in Jonesville. Her mother’s love of singing sacred music and her father’s constant guitar playing and blues singing provided her and her sisters and brothers with a variety of musical experiences." — from Drop on Down in Florida: Field Recordings of African American Traditional Music 1977-1980 http://dust-digital.com/florida
