Paul’s album containing 8 songs is consistently powerful throughout, offering a synthesized atmosphere in which piano, flute, acoustic guitar, and distant choral vocals rise to transform each song into a hymn like quality. My noteworthy favorites are: Track 2 Footsteps in the Clouds, which begins with a piano sequence upon combining orchestral movements, glide into a heavenly anthem. Track 6 Walking Towards Heaven, has a graceful melody which will raise your spirit throughout the entire song. Track 7 Hall of Voices, is full of distant choral background harmony in which one can almost imagine being lifted upward by angels into the final heavenly destination.

The accompanying album cover is also very appropriate in describing what awaits the listener, having a deep blue cloud filled background and the bold Taijitu symbol or more widely recognized in modern times as the Yin & Yang symbol. The ancient symbolic character Taijitu was introduced in China during the Ming Period around (430 A. D.) by author Lai Zhide and has remained a constant in being adopted worldwide by many different cultures and philosophies throughout the centuries. When translated, Taijitu can be defined as The diagram of the supreme ultimate power. This accurately describes the latest contribution by Paul Sills and I for one, thank him for the latest creation, having truly enjoyed the experience.

Walking Across Heaven is a collectors edition for those seeking a spiritual journey while still residing here on this Earth, but don’t bother packing friends since luggage will not be a requirement.
