This album is as superb as its cover, which features a sultry female face and a rocket going into space. One side is Christian's own space suite, and the other is some exquisite orchestral mood versions of some well-chosen standards. What really lifts the record above others is the use of percussion in the arrangements, which gives the whole affair an incredible spacey feeling.
