Re-Issue Notes:
Three of the Four Epitafios recorded here (3, 4 and 5) appear on Recollections (1979).
This record had an exceptionally brief life as a CD in the mid-1990s. I know nothing about that CD release beyond rumours that it happened. (I was unaware of it at the time and still do not own a copy).
Three of the Four Epitafios (3, 4 and 5) were also re-recorded for The Guitarist album in 2003.
John Williams has been involved in two further versions of To Yelasto Pedi, as an instrumental piece: arranged by Stanley Myers with strings on Changes, recorded shortly after this album was published, and arranged by John Williams several years later with Sky.
