While listening to "in search of the lost chord" tonight, my girlfriend noticed that the title on the cover can also be read as "in search of the lost word" if you kind of let the C and the H blend together. Has anyone else ever noticed this? Here's a link to a picture:http://http://www.google.com/imgres?q=in+search+of+the+lost+chord&hl=en&safe=off&sa=X&rlz=1R2RNQN_enUS463&biw=1140&bih=508&tbm=isch&prmd=imvns&tbnid=TT68QZZlHmF4eM:&imgrefurl=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Search_of_the_Lost_Chord&docid=i8StNTT9P7MsvM&imgurl=http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/7c/In_search_of_the_lost_chord.jpg/220px-In_search_of_the_lost_chord.jpg&w=220&h=220&ei=l3qGT7uHK-ra0QHMmbzLBw&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=2&sig=105716687073233352001&page=1&tbnh=134&tbnw=128&start=0&ndsp=13&ved=1t:429,r:0,s:0,i:96&tx=86&ty=78
I was hoping someone would know that tidbit and have a little story behind it. I read the wikipedia page and then googled it but nothing turned up. As anyone who has heard the album the "third note of the chord" is the concept of "Om" and the poetry read before the final song is called "The word" so it adds up but there is no mention anywhere. I guess it was just one of those stoned moments I had where I felt like researching something.
great album, been in my collection for a long time :2thumbsup: cant see chord as word though to be honest even if i squint
get stooooooned and look again... haha but seriously, I did just go look again and it is a little harder to see now. Just kind of ignore the bottom part where the "c" and the "h" meet.
I've been meaning to listen to this album eventually. I know this is the one with the Timothy Leary song on it. I really enjoyed "Days of Future Passed".
