“A simply stunning musical trio Iona, with a quite brilliant recording of the same name…Iona have a sound all their own, but there are distinct celtic influences along with classic al, rock and jazz.”21CC Magazine August 1990“Richly evocative music which, with its crafty synthesis of the Gaelic and the symphonic, jazz-rock fusion and ethnic folk influences, make for an album brimming over with superb musicianship.” Cross Rhythms Magazine, Aug/Sept 1990"Iona has created some of the most dramatically different music on today's music scene ... elements of classical rock mixed with modern ethnic experimentations ... such as Clannad and Peter Gabriel." White Throne Magazine (USA), 1991"The music on Iona's debut album is as refreshing as the moors of their namesake Scottish isle." CCM Magazine (USA), 1991.The stunning debut album of a truly unique band that immediately caught the imagination and touched the soul of those that heard them. Producer Dave Bainbridge revisited the original master tapes for this enhanced version, re-working and remixing 7 of the tracks to stunning effect.CD 1Turning TideFlight of the Wild GooseThe Island,White SandsDancing on the WallA'MachairVision of NaranBeijingIonaTrilogyHere I StandColumcilleCD 2 IONA COMPANION AUDIO DISK: Complete running order to be confirmed, but likely to be:Turning Tide 1.30 (remastered from original 2 track DAT master tape)Flight of the Wild Goose 1.59 - Dave original demoFlight of the Wild Goose 5.58 (original album version - remastered from original 2 track mix tape)The Island 4.11 Jo’s original demo - recorded Otley Aug 1989The Island 5.06 (original album version - remastered from original 2 track mix tape)White Sands 1.24 - Dave original demoDancing on the Wall 4.02 original demoDancing on the Wall 4.39 (original album version - remastered from original 2 track mix tape)A'Machair 5.24 (original album version - remastered from original 2 track mix tapeVision of Naran 5.06 - original demoVision of Naran 5.48 (remastered from original 2 track DAT master tape)Beijing 2.20 - Dave original demoIona 3.16 - Jo’s original demo - recorded Otley Aug 1989,Iona 3.24 (remastered from original 2 track DAT master tape)Trilogy 9.31 - First Iona studio demo, which includes some sections not used in the album version.Here I Stand 3.08 - original version with pianoColumcille 2.47 with Electric guitar playing melody!
