Thanks For Visiting And Be Sure To Tell All Your Friends. Close To The Edge signals the start of some very long songs. The song "Close To The Edge" is actually split up into 4 parts, but are actually one complete song. These types of songs are a nightmare for the rock and roll radio stations. But on more than one occassion. I have heard my favorite station in Philly, WMMR(93.3) play "Close To The Edge" in it's entirety. The artwork shown depicts the end of the Earth. I hope you will enjoy the different nature sounds produced especially for this very popular album.
