Notes

Episode's best known and final work, this CD was to be the last contribution of Tom Finch, who left the band several months before completion. He was gracious enough to come in as a session musician and finish the album, though. Highlights include "Edge of the Sky", a 15-minute work, and the towering "Hesperates Rising", a piece about the arrival of a second moon in the sky. "Hesperates" consists of 4 movements, and clocks in at 24 minutes.

The band puttered along on and off for several years after the release of this album, playing the occasional gig and working on projects that never got off the ground. Don and Gary made significant contributions to Under the Big Tree, which for a time was to be the new Episode album. However, the age-old story of musical and personality differences put the band in its final resting place.
