Steve's second album produced and engineered by Todd Rundgren.

A synth, guitar feast with wonderful covers of Donovan's 'Hurdy Gurdy Man' and George Harrison's 'It's All To Much', not to mention Steve's mighty 'Lunar Musick Suite' and one of my favorites 'Hurdy Gurdy Glissando'. Features Todds's Utopia band and the late great Don Cherry among the musicians and as the sleeve notes say - "Dedicated to all optimistic visions of the future.
