Elijah Records recording artists Joe Piket & The Storm release 'the Waters Of Lethe'

CHICAGO, IL (Elijah Records) - The River Lethe was a mythical river, similar to the River Styx, where the souls of the dead went after their time on Earth had ended. Upon reaching Lethe, these souls were given a chance at eternal life by drinking from its waters. Having drunk from those waters, however, they would immediately lose all memory of their time on Earth...their loved ones, their family, their friends, their good times... all of their experiences would be forgotten, lost to them forever. Was it worth the price?

Elijah Records recording artists JOE PIKET AND THE STORM explore this question with the epic title track from their latest CD, 'The Waters of Lethe.' The son of internationally acclaimed composer Frederick Piket, Joe Piket‚s "The Waters of Lethe‰ has been compared to the music of King Crimson, Yes, and Queen. (Go to www.joepiket.com for reviews). The sub-4 minute version has already been receiving airplay on hundreds of college radio stations across the country.
JOE PIKET AND THE STORM create an epic tale complete with soaring guitars, elaborate piano and keyboard arrangements, and contemplative lyrics.

The CD also features an updated version of Billy Joel's "New York State of Mind", with Joel sideman Richie Cannata on saxophone, as well as other great new STORM originals. Available September 2004 at Tower Records, Amazon.com, Borders, Elijah Records‚ web site (www.ElijahRec.com) and other retail and on-line outlets.
