Notes From Purgatory

Composing and developing the music for Lucifer Rising was, for me, a personal journey – one that was more spiritual than material in nature. The notion that the work might enjoy some sort of commercial success is one to which I hardly gave more than a passing thought. Instrumental music, without lyrics and vocals, virtually guarantees limited popular appeal in any case.

In 1980, not long after I completed the work, I managed, with the help of some friends, to arrange a limited pressing of the original extended stereo version of the soundtrack on vinyl LP. A few of the 1,000 copies of the LP were given to each of the members of The Freedom Orchestra, whose energies and talents were so invaluable to the making of many of the recordings. Most of the remaining copies were given away to family and friends, or distributed by Kenneth at showings of the film during his Magick Lantern Cycle screenings. And then they were gone.

A decade passed during which I heard barely a whisper about the Lucifer Rising soundtrack. From where I sat, the work seemed to have faded into obscurity, of little interest to anyone but those who had been directly involved in the process of its creation. Then I began to receive letters from people in many parts of the world who had been exposed to the recordings in one way or another, typically by way of a pirated cassette copy of the soundtrack ripped from the LP or the monophonic optical track of the film, and who had written to tell me how they had been personally affected or influenced by this music.

There are not words to express the profound joy and gratitude I experienced upon discovering that this music had reached across time and continents to touch the hearts of other souls. This is a work that emerged out of the crucible of private experience under extreme and fragile circumstances. Its birth was not an easy one. I had to wrestle it into existence, not only out of myself, but passed difficulties and obstacles that defy description. No greater honor could come from this effort than learning that the emotive textures in this music have succeeded in communicating their messages, resonating in the psyches of many who have heard it. Sharing in this kind of intimacy with the listener is a reward beyond any I had hoped to attain.

To all those stalwart souls, named and unnamed, who supported and encouraged me in these efforts, who participated in some fashion in the creative process, and to those who have responded so favorably to the results, I extend my undying gratitude. To those of you who are encountering these recordings for the first time, I thank you for your interest in hearing them.
