Description:First official issue of David Sancious?? legendary unreleased masterpiece / Recorded in 1976, the golden age of progressive rock and jazz fusion / Remastered by David Sancious from the original masters / Liner notes by David Sancious / David Sancious has collaborated with Bruce Springsteen, Peter Gabriel, Sting, Stanley Clarke, Daryl Hall & John Oates, Santana, and Jon Anderson of Yes / David Sancious is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the E Street Band - Long regarded as one of the premier musicians in the world, David Sancious was a founding member of Bruce Springsteen??s E Street Band; toured and recorded with Peter Gabriel, Sting, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Santana, Seal and a long list of A-level musicians; and created groundbreaking music with his own band, Tone. A brilliant composer, arranger, orchestrator and multi-instrumentalist, David Sancious albums including Forest of Feelings (1975), Transformation (The Speed of Love) (1976), True Stores (1978) and Just As I Thought (1979) have long been beloved by progressive rock and jazz fusion fans around the world. Sancious recorded his most ambitious album, Dance of the Age of Enlightenment, in 1976, accompanied by Tone. Conceived as a ballet in four movements, at the time of the recording, technology did not allow for synthesizers to play more than one note at a time. To create the sound of an orchestral ensemble every part of the orchestration had to be painstakingly overdubbed individually by Sancious on a Moog Synthesizer. Despite the music??s quality, Sancious was notified by his record company that the album would not be released, and they very much wanted another, more ??commercial? record from him that they could release before releasing Dance of the Age of Enlightenment. Only a few promotional copies of Dance of the Age of Enlightenment circulated before his label decided to cancel the release of the album entirely. Outside of bootlegs drawn from the promo LP, Dance of the Age of Enlightenment has remained in the vault?until now. Personally remastered from the original master tapes under David Sancious?? supervision, this first-ever official release of Dance of the Age of Enlightenment is a major addition to the canon of classic prog and fusion. -
