Older then or younger now
Backwards either way
Different times in altered states
This is not my face
For all I know I might be cracking at the seams
For all I know this could be some psychotic dream
MindWarp
What I've lived and what I've done
If only I could say
Barking mad or partly sane
Not my choice today
For all I know I could be talking to myself again
For all I know I might be traveling in space
MindWarp
Whispering madness
Am I going insane?
Whispering madness
Is it really my name?

Lyrics and music by Ron Rutherford
Great Prog album with so much detail. Superb musicianship and very well constructed. Ben obviously loves what he does and so do I.
VERY enjoyable journey. Robert Wallace
Billed as the masters of symphonic prog this album is an interesting of styles and influences. Folky in parts, rocky in others.
Vocals are good and male for a change. Both lyrics and music are involving and all in all this album is a good listen.
I will be looking at The Gift's other offerings. Russell Whyman
Came to this band very late and I must confess only because they were playing various dates with one of my firm favs Kaprekar’s Constant so I thought I’d better take a listen to what they had on offer...and well I now have all three albums and a huge convert...so much so that the neighbours will get to know them too over the next few weeks...if you ever get a chance to watch them live...you are in for a big treat...they command the stage and the audience as their own...
