We did this one at Kajem Studios just outside of Philadelphia in January 1988. It was incredible working with keyboardist Jordan Rudess who now plays with Dream Theater. He plays some absolutely amazing stuff. It was great to feed off of his musical energy.
Recording this CD was also a challenge because there is around 60 minutes of music, and as with Mind's Eye, we didn't have nearly enough time. We did it in 18 or 20 days.

As Time Slips By is one of my favorite songs that I have ever written. I rarely listen to my own music, but when I hear this one, I still feel moved by the emotion. When I was choosing songs for The Maze Tour in April 1999, I listened through some tunes from this CD. It was the first time I had heard it in probably 9 years. I have to say that it was definately an "intense" record. For whatever reason, however, no songs from Time Odyssey made it into the set. An oversight on my part which I have been reminded of by fans on the Guest Page. Sorry. I promise that on the next tour I will do something from this CD.
