I'm not sure. I was given an LP (it was years ago) called The Whale. It was very progressive then, perhaps need to revisit. I hear he's given up music!

I've never seen the Northern Lights. Too much light pollution in the City on the very rare occasions they've come this far South.

They've been seen in Michigan Eileen. Sorry my geography is bad - is that north of you?

I have a couple of his CD's Byzantine and The Lamb. I don't listen to hime full cd at a time but like to dip in and out. I like the Bass Profondo in some of his stuff. Am on look out for cd of russian orthodox choir music featuring that.

I was amazed by that guy Ashura Alexander Shkuratov - what an amazingly versatile composer. His website is very European, as you would expect - but there was a great sax track on it when I visited.
