Album Notes

Bill Roper has been writing and playing filk music, the music of science-fiction fandom, for over 20 years. On this, his first CD, he -- with a little help from his friends -- warps filk music off in the direction of jazz, producing an album that is likely unique in this sector of the galaxy. From rockets blasting into space, to the intensely personal, to the very end of the universe, you'll find that you're on a musical journey that's like nothing you've heard before.

REVIEWS

Good, but I prefer "Falling Toward Orion"
author: Bruce Feist
                            
Roper's voice is good, and the songs are OK, but I didn't find much on this album that really stood out.  Maybe I'll change my mind after I listen to it a few more times.
