Some Time Ago…

     …four musicians got together to make a little music. It’s not like they hadn’t done so already. Indeed, each of the four was a member of a rather successful group. Nevertheless, they wanted to stretch their wings in new ways, and they felt a certain commonality of purpose. So they recorded a couple of albums together.

  • Neal Morse of Spock’s Beard;
  • Roine Stolt of the Flower Kings;
  • Pete Trewavas of Marillion;
  • Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater.
