Trevor Rabin was born in South Africa in 1954 where as a child he took piano lessons. By the age of twelve he had taken up the guitar and by the age of fourteen in 1968 Trevor formed his first band, which performed until Trevor was drafted for his national service. During his time in the Army Trevor continued to play with a band in the entertainment unit. Following his discharge Trevor performed on sessions and eventually hooked up with a number of other like-minded musicians and formed the band Rabbitt.

Despite the fact that Rabbitt was possibly the most successful band in South Africa Trevor decided to leave and emigrated to the UK in 1978. When Trevor arrived he set about recording his first solo album entitled Trevor Rabin. Subsequently this album was re issued on CD as Beginnings. Trevor recorded two further albums as a solo artist before being approached to join rock supergroup Asia. Unfortunately this collaboration didn't work out however Chris Squire fresh out of the recently defunct Yes approached Trevor with the idea of forming a new band alongside him and Alan White, which would be called Cinema. The band then set about recording their debut album as Cinema. Things didn't quite turn out as the members envisaged and with the addition of Jon Anderson Cinema evolved into Yes and the album became the multi platinum selling 90125 which brought Yes back to the forefront of the music industry. A second album was recorded with the same line up entitled Big Generator.

Following the tour to promote this album Trevor once again decided to record a solo album entitled Can't Look Away.

The album was originally released in 1989 and contains the same sort of high gloss pop/rock music that Trevor Rabin was providing for Yes at that time. The album also spawned a tour to promote the album from which the Trevor Rabin Live album Live In LA was drawn.

Unavailable for many years this re issued album has now been re mastered for release and is the last of Trevor's solo albums to be re issued.
