I had long time ago a spanish version of " colours" who on the side B included also the song " Wings of vision" released on single the same year. but i can´t find this version on discogs.

There is unfortunally no informations about the flute solo of the song "impressions" on the cover. It is a beautiful song and besides "Illumination" , "Child Migration" and "Sunset" my favourites. In generall a very good album and great cover art work. Because of that cover I bought this record once in Munich in a record store.

Can anyone help answer this question:

- Who plays the flute-solo on the song "Impressions"?
