The Cycle Is Complete is debut and only full-length studio album by the Canadian musician Bruce Palmer, released on September 4, 1970 by Verve Forecast.^[3] The album was re-issued on CD by Collectors' Choice in 2003. Because of issues with the original masters, the music on the re-release was significantly remixed and content from alternate takes was used to replace some of the original music, especially on "Alpha – Omega – Apocalypse".
