Hi,
> From what I heard on The Promo Copy (that belongs to a friend) of The > Power To Believe:
Actually, the track The Power To Believe II, is in fact Virtuous Circle, plus some percussion duo like "Shoganai", the "haiku" that appears on The Power To Believe I: A Capella and on TPTB IV: Coda, and a solo by Fripp that reprises the theme Sylvian And Fripp's track Bringing Down The Light.
On The Power To Believe III the opening movement from The Deception Of The Thrush appears, instead of lines from T.S. Elliot's Waste Land what we hear are the lines from The Power To Believe "haiku". The second movement from TDOTT (Fripp's Soundscapes and Trey's solo) doesn't appear.
The whole album is great. All the songs work pretty well together. And more, the "OLD" songs like Level 5, Elektrik and Dangerous Curves, especially the last two, are really improved.
Happy...is shorter on the album, Eyes Wide Open is very similar to the acoustic version, only longer and with more details. Facts Of Life: Intro is a short Soundscape with some heavy percussion at the end announcing, of course,...Facts Of Life...Beast, Beast, I say.
To resume: All Killer...No Filler
P@ really caught my attention on this album, he is a monster through the whole thing. And of course, the other three Crims are on the top of their game as well.
I didn't make a copy of the Promo album from my friend and I'll not download it either. I'll buy for sure, as I do with ALL Crimson releases, the official "The Power To Believe"when it comes out.
Best Wishes To All
