▌░ ░▐
▌░ The roots of CATHEDRAL lie in a psychedelic band called ░▐
▌░ Odyssey. When that band broke up in 1975, bassist Fred ░▐
▌░ Callan, and mellotronist Tom Doncourt ventured on to form ░▐
▌░ CATHEDRAL. The band was filled out by drummer Mercury Caronia ░▐
▌░ IV, guitarist Rudy Perrone, and vocalist Paul Seal. They ░▐
▌░ toured the Long Island club scene, and bravely decided to ░▐
▌░ play original music. Instead of Pschedelic, they were taking ░▐
▌░ more cues from the prog leaders of the time, the likes of ░▐
▌░ King Crimson, Yes, Genesis, and Gentle Giant. What Tom ░▐
▌░ Doncourt refers to as a "majestic" sound. ░▐
▌░ ░▐
▌░ In 1978 they got together with Delta Records, and recorded ░▐
▌░ "Stained Glass Stories." 10,000 copies were printed and sold. ░▐
▌░ Interestingly, Delta Records was not much more than a studio ░▐
▌░ above the Palace Theater in Times Square. However, Delta did ░▐
▌░ have connections to record chains, and had the likes of Duke ░▐
▌░ Ellington and Allison Steele recording right alongside. It ░▐
▌░ was very much like the independent labels of today. New York ░▐
▌░ City itself was fertile territory for progressive rock at the ░▐
▌░ time. Tom Doncourt tells stories of turning old movie ░▐
▌░ theaters into concert halls for one night stands. They built ░▐
▌░ the stages, put in lighting, and wired the spaces for sound ░▐
▌░ themselves. ░▐
▌░ ░▐
▌░ All of this led to interest from Atlantic Records. They had ░▐
▌░ some meetings, but this was the end of the '70s. The ░▐
▌░ popularity of prog was rapidly declining. So a second album ░▐
▌░ was not to be (or was it?). This did not diminish the ░▐
▌░ importance of "Stained Glass Stories." It became a highly ░▐
▌░ valued collectible, and the subject of much critical acclaim. ░▐
▌░ Some have even called it the best American prog album ever. ░▐
▌░ Renewed interest in prog led Syn-Phonic to re-release the ░▐
▌░ album on CD in 1990. ░▐
▌░ ░▐
▌░ As prog began to rise again, so did interest in CATHEDRAL. ░▐
▌░ Finally, in 2003, Fred Callan called on his band mates once ░▐
▌░ again. They brought old and new equipment, and had a mission ░▐
▌░ to create progressive music that was true to its history, but ░▐
▌░ not limited by it. The played together, and experimented for ░▐
▌░ three years. Then they entered the studio. The process proved ░▐
▌░ to be too much for Rudy Perrone, and he left the group. The ░▐
▌░ thought of adding a new guitarist to the mix was a source of ░▐
▌░ great anxiety. The guys were blessed to find David Doig. His ░▐
▌░ sensibilities proved to gel right with the vision of the ░▐
▌░ band. After almost 30 years, they released their second ░▐
▌░ album. 2007's "The Bridge" is the follow up, and also a new ░▐
▌░ beginning. In Early 2008, the band signed with Musea, and ░▐
▌░ continues to work on new material. It took a while, but the ░▐
▌░ future now looks bright for CATHEDRAL. ░▐
