The purpose of "THE TRANQUILIZER SUITE" is to inspire positivity, faith, courage, call it what you may but we all need it desperately. In my moments of negativity I have been greatly uplifted by the positive writings of many beautiful people. In one such writing the olive tree was used as a symbol of courage. The Picture on the cover of this record is of myself and my good friend the olive tree which stands outside my living room window. I have but to look out of my window to be reminded of the courage, positivity and faith symbolized by the olive tree. If you do not have an olive tree near by why not look for something that symbolizes these same qualities for you.
The purpose of "THE PROCESS OF CREATION SUITE" is to bring to conscious attention the process by which we all have to partake consciously or sub-consciously in order to create anything material or atmospheric. This suite was written to inspire conscious awareness of the process in order that we may create better material things and better atmospheric conditions.
Horace Silver
