The civilizations of each have developed different aspects, depending on the planet’s natural qualities. Ron Marquiss composed the story, music and lyrics. Ron plays all instruments, joined by Bill Ray (drums) throughout, and Troll Hart (vocals), Suzi James (lead guitar) and Tim Wenzel (piano) on the title track The music moves deftly from progressive instrumentals into very quirky territory.

Effected vocals, piano, synths, organ, mellotron, guitars, bass, flute and drums sound like a typical lineup,
