Could very well be SGT's best ever...remastered & revamped!

"This album was an international breakthrough for the Australian-based, US-signed band, Single Gun Theory, almost a decade ago. Yet, what a stunningly fresh blend of musical worlds it presents the listener today! Eastern percussion, funky bass lines (a la Jah Wobble), aptly chosen dialogue, richly textured keyboard, and stunning female vocals from Jacqui Hunt, combine to take you on an entirely unique and unpretentious spiritual journey. This is truly music for the mind and heart, with such standout tracks as "I Am What I See", "From A Million Miles", "Words Written Backwards" and "Surrender". There are precious few contemporary musical experiences that will enrich your life as much as this. In other words, forget Delerium, SGT is the REAL thing!"

"Single Gun Theory may have come out of Australia, but their sound has some basis in Indian/Pakistani Bhangra music, which was gaining some UK exposure about the time this wonderful CD was released.This is the direction sampling should have gone: as added color to already formed songs, rather than the flat-out plagerism heard too often today. "From A Million Miles," "Words Written Backwords," and "Angels Over Teheren" are all top-flight dance hall tunes, great examples of the convergance of techno and world-music that, while never too popular in the States, controlled international music for two decades."
This is a can't miss, guaranteed, keeper

"This album grew on me, it's now one of my favorites. Everyone I give it to, loves it, you will too. Buy it. SGT's other album is also excellent!"
Maybe greatest album ever

"Just the song From a Million miles is enough to purchase this CD. This song has such a wonderful sampled sound playing to beatiful lyrics with a stunning voice. The rest of the album is excellent also."
