About
The album tracks all flow one on to the next, almost as if it were one huge track. Each one is very varied and yet still links to the main "Songs of Distant Earth" theme. The way it returns to "A New Beginning" is almost a loop, and there are some layed-back track, rushed track, beautifully sonic track... For those who are afraid of another Tubular Bell, please don't be! The name of the albums is taken from a book by Arthur C. Clarke, with the same name as the album. .
