Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Illuminations is the sixth album by Buffy Sainte-Marie, released in December 1969.Considered her most experimental record, It was one of the first music albums with vocals processed through a Buchla 100 synthesizer as well as the first recorded using quadraphonic technology, an early precursor to surround-sound. With the exception of a lead guitar on one track and a rhythm section employed on three of the last four selections, the music is entirely synthesized from Buffy’s voice and guitar, producing a wholly unique sound that has been considered a precursor to everything from gothic rock to electronic music.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Tracklist "God is Alive, Magic is Afoot" (4:51) "Mary" (1:30) "Better to Find Out for Yourself" (2:12) "The Vampire" (2:05) "Adam" (5:05) "The Dream Tree" (2:34) "Suffer the Little Children" (2:53) "The Angel" (3:41) "With You, Honey" (1:48) "Guess Who I Saw in Paris" (2:25) "He's a Keeper of the Fire" (3:21) "Poppies" (3:26)

Book-Ends: The record begins and ends with Buffy's synthesizer altered voice singing "God is alive, magic is afoot".

Cover Version: An odd case, in where, the song "God is Alive, Magic is Afoot" is an adaptation of a mantra / poem in Leonard Cohen's book Beautiful Losers set to music.
