takes one far far far away. Further than anything I ever heard before. Hearing Equinox, My Favorite Things, Giant Steps and Greensleeves at the right moment has permanently altered my perception of music.

in 1998 took a trip to Foyers, Scottland. We flew into Birmingham, rented (hired) a car and drove North. Upon arriving Foyers the first notable thing we saw was the Boleskine burial ground. Across the road was the Boleskine house. We drove up the driveway and a large unfriendly scottsman stopped us and asked what we were doing. We said we’re fans of the house. He did not let us in. Later we found out that the house is now owned by its original owners (some clan) and its a bed & breakfast. The waiting list to stay there is rather long. So we were there. The burial ground has a small room with lots of thelemic and Jimmy-Page related graffiti.
