Parabola

This composition was performed live during the 1988 North America tour but sadly has not been officially released in entirety so far, as some minutes of the middle part are missing on the album Rockface. The whole composition consists of three different themes; the last of them is identical to the opening/closing theme from Iguana but is repeated several times, having an extra layer of sound added with each run-through of the melody, building up a wall of sound by the end.
