3. Aisle Of Dreams 9:09

The most ambitious (arguably) of Kevin's releases, in that it is just three big works, including an extended 28 minute suite and a majestic 20 minute opus, blending his familiar style with elements that recall some of the earlier works of Edgar Froese and Cluster/Roedelius, and a kind of neo-baroque approach to keyboard melodies.
Possibly the most obscure of Kevin's releases, and never reissued before, this was a tricky one to restore, but the results sound pretty good!
