Ah, the concept album! The performance art of audio. Any weird idea that comes into the artists' head can be graced with that glorious title. http://www.notation.com/discus/clipart/happy.gif
Seriously, at the request of Sherry, here's another piece from my "Gates of the Millenium" concept album, which is a set of pieces that revolve around possible futures, as seen from a time when we stand "at the gates of the millenium".
The piece "Altered Paths" that I posted a long time ago under "Sort of Floyd-ish" and the "I Remember The Setting Sun" acoustic guitar piece I posted under "Why is this in rock?" are both part of it.
Here's another: "Another Dream" with some jazz-rock guitar and some interesting vocal lines. The pad sound I'm actually using is a beautiful one from my Casio CTK-651 that soars eerily into the stratosphere on each note release; I'm afraid that it's unique to Casio, so I've just used a generic pad. For live performance, I've sampled it for use in my archaic Akai samplers. And, a little Rhodes goes a long way.
