review...
INTIMATIONS OF IMMORTALITY was released in May, 1986. It's even better (if that's possible) than his previous releases and reveals a more mature and polished style. The album was reviewed admirably by Greg Truckell in Audion 1 so I'll just give a few brief personal notes on the tracks here. Ylang-ylang is serene, but with a hint of underlying tension. Pentraeth 28 is a broody and sometimes menacing cosmic piece. Niall of the Nine Hostages is a bittersweet atmospheric and somewhat introspective work and the title track is an arresting and dramatic tour-de-force. The Persistence of Memory is quiet and emotive with a dreamlike quality. Earth, Wind and Fire is a dark, brooding and chilling piece and Etude, which is a graceful and reflective piece nicely rounds off an extremely fine album which I can't fault one minute of. I thoroughly recommend it and am pleased to learn that it is selling very well.
