 In 1986, after the Yardbirds' reunion project, Box of Frogs, drummer-composer Jim McCarty and guitarist-bassist Louis Cennamo (McCarty's colleague from Renaissance) decided to regroup to create music of a healing nature. Both expressed an interest in what is now known as New Age music, a then-emerging genre characterized by pastoral melodies, gentle shifting textures, echoing ambiances and identification with a growing alternative listening audience. They subsequently signed with Colin Wilcox of New World Cassettes, a U.K.-based independent label that specialized in "healing music". Consequently McCarty and Cennamo went on to record two cassette albums for the company: Aquamarine (1987) and Moonstone (1988), a mixture of songs and instrumentals. They were joined by keyboardist Clifford White and guest appearances by another Renaissance colleague, vocalist Jane Relf. A later CD release as Moonstone included tracks from both cassettes. These albums were subsequently followed by two albums with the psychologist and spiritual healer, Malcolm Stern: Chakra Dance (1989) and Medicine Dance (1992), which they promoted through a few live performances, mainly at St. James Church in Piccadilly, a video of which is commercially available. Stairway’s New World cassette albums have been re-released on compact disc format. Stairway also resurfaced once more as simply “James McCarty/Louis Cennamo” on Canadian flute player Ron Korb’s Oasis label, releasing Raindreaming in 1995. Amazon Tracklist: 1.
