----------------

As to the makeup of the solo sections, I haven't transcribed
them but note that they are preceeded by restful Lydian chords
and that they are crafted of materials heard earlier in the tune
-- the pedal points spaced liberally for maximum buildup of
tension -- so that the intro and head themes can be charged
triumphantly through.

As far as the rest of the group's performance on this tune, what
I particularily enjoy is Gary Husband's intricate cymbal work
and almost melodic use of the tom-toms (bringing to mind his
work on the _I.O.U._ album) fills, Jimmy Johnson's joint
articulation of important themes (using different but related
runs when quicker gestures are repeated, placing some bass notes
up an octave, and varying his rooting of passages), and the way
that Steve Hunt confidently takes his time soloing before
Holdsworth himself roars through his obviously own changes.
