It is so lovely to hear the maturity in composition on this album. Like in the later Balance albums, the depth of character and narrative development of the story are reflected in the music. It's still difficult to pinpoint a single favorite track! "Roots, Seeds, Branches," "Calamity Tree," "Interstellar Blues," "Incident at the Archway," and "Her Name Reverberates..." are all poignant and evocative. "Kepler, WV" is at the top because of the scene it scores. It makes me both sad and joyful.
