The compositions in \'Palindrome\' represent Billy\'s re-engagement with music that he created as far back as thirty years ago: songs like Moon Germs (from \'Total Eclipse\', 1975),A Days Grace (\'Flight Time\', 1981) are presented in updated arrangements.
The same goes for Two For Juan (1987, \'Picture This\'), Alfa Waves (\'The Traveler\', 1995) and Mirage (\'Focused\', 1997).
Rounding out this musical portfolio are never before released compositions: Obliquely Speaking, Isle Of Skye, Cancun Market, Torpedo Flo and Saippuakivikaupias, the Palindrome song.
So, as Billy Cobham returns to his roots so does he continue to move forward with fresh ideas for old themes to accompany his most recent musical compositions.
The album features guest performances by Marco Lobo - percussion, Wilbert \'Junior\' Gill - steel pan and pankat, Ernie Watts - woodwinds, Michael Rodriguez - trumpet, Marshall Gilkes - trombone, Jean-Marie Ecay and Dean Brown - guitars, Philippe Chayeb - bass, and Christophe Cravero - keyboards and violin.
