Eye Of The Eagle
The Eye Of The Eagle is an album by Dave Bainbridge and Dave Fitzgerald. Released in 1998.
Renowned flute and saxophone player Dave Fitzgerald was a founding member of Iona, but left to pursue classical music studies. After completing his master's degree in music he began recording collaborative projects with fellow musicians, revealing his love of the liturgical tradition. Teaming up with fellow ex-Iona member Dave Bainbridge (guitar, keyboard), and using wind and reed instruments as voices, together they provide a meditative backdrop for the reading of poetry by Anglican Canon Dave Adam. The theme of Adam's work, rooted in Celtic spirituality, is awareness of God's presence in the mundane affairs of everyday life.

Famous quotes containing the words eye of, eye and/or eagle:
“Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder’s fork and blind-worm’s sting,
Lizard’s leg and owlet’s wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.”
—Bible: Hebrew Exodus 21:23.
“If the Americans, in addition to the eagle and the Stars and Stripes and the more unofficial symbols of bison, moose and Indian, should ever need another emblem, one which is friendly and pleasant, then I think they should choose the grapefruit. Or rather the half grapefruit, for this fruit only comes in halves, I believe. Practically speaking, it is always yellow, always just as fresh and well served. And it always comes at the same, still hopeful hour of the morning.”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
