Allow it to touch you as well.\"CCM Magazine (USA), November 1992\"Finally, the most evocative release of all... Iona's ethereal 'Book of Kells'... unbelievable.\"Billboard (USA), December 1992\"This Book contains the harmony of the four Evangelists according to Jerome, where for almost every page there are different designs, distinguished by varied colours. Here you may see the face of Majesty, divinely drawn. Here the mystic symbols of the Evangelists, each with wings, now six, now four, now two; here the Eagle, there the Calf, here the Man, there the Lion, and other forms almost infinite. Look at them superficially with the ordinary casual glance, and you would think it an erasure, and not tracery. Fine craftsmanship is all about you, but you might not notice it. Look morekeenly at it, and you will penetrate to the very shrine of art. You will make out intricacies, so delicate and subtle, so exact and compact, so full of knots and links, with colours so fresh and vivid, that you might say that all was the work of an Angel, and not of a man! For my part, the oftener I see the Book, and the more carefully I study it, the more I am lost in ever fresh amazement, and I see more and more wonders in the Book.\" From 'TopographiaHiberniae' of Gerald Cambrensis. 1185 A.D.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Sidea \u003cbr\u003e1.2  \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Kells Opening Theme \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Revelation \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Matthew - the Man \u003cbr\u003e1.6  \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Side B \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Chi-Rho \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Mark - the Lion \u003cbr\u003e1.10 The River Flows \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Luke - the Calf \u003cbr\u003e1.12  \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Virgin and Child \u003cbr\u003e1.14  \u003cbr\u003e1.15 Side C \u003cbr\u003e1.16  \u003cbr\u003e1.17 Temptation \u003cbr\u003e1.18 The Arrest \/ Gethsemene \u003cbr\u003e1.19 Trinity - the Godhead \u003cbr\u003e1.20 John - the Eagle \u003cbr\u003e1.21  \u003cbr\u003e1.22  \u003cbr\u003e1.23 Side D \u003cbr\u003e1.24 Kells \u003cbr\u003e1.25 Eternity - No Beginning, No End \u003cbr\u003e1.26 Mark - the Lion (Alternative Intro) \u003cbr\u003e1.27 Tree of Life \u003cbr\u003e1.28 Eternity (New Version) \u003cbr\u003e1.29 Virgin and Child (Solo Harp)\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Iona","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49005119602759,"sku":"46628510","price":41.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/4545352-3724738.jpg?v=1790679818","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/iona-the-book-of-kells-vinyl-lp","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
