1981- Rod, wife Andrea and 2-year old Juliana were living in a pentagon-shaped dance studio in the high desert country of Sunshine Valley, New Mexico, two miles from the Rio Grande gorge and three miles from the nearest paved road. Surrounded by sagebrush, coyotes, and rattlesnakes, with the ominous Ute Peak pervading the northern horizon, Rod recorded these ten piano improvisations long before the proliferation of the New Age music idiom- perhaps a prophecy, but the seeds of so much music sprouting and recorded for the first time.
