Thalia

The music on this CD represents Roger Doyle's early works, re-packaged and re-mastered in 2002. It includes his extremely rare self-released 1975 debut LP "Oizzo No" and his second LP "Thalia" from 1978, originally released on CBS Classics, all on the one 77 minute CD. The earliest piece is Bitter-Sweet Suite for out-of-tune piano composed when he was 18, and the latest, Thalia, his first large-scale electronic piece, composed at the age of 26.

Upon the initial release of Thalia, Ireland's 'Hot Press' magazine said:"God help the future of music if Mr. Doyle has anything to do with it".
