Folks, it's beautiful. Just listening to Phaedra outtakes now. Wonderful stuff. Dive right in - the water's absolutely fine.

I would say so. I only had one FK album (Adam n Eve) and I got this box set just before Christmas. Just finished listening to the last cd today. And you know what? it's been a great listen. The...

Side 2 of Neu2 is mostly unlistenable. A joke? I wasn't laughing. Side one is pretty good though. Neu first album is great and Neu 75 is a stone cold classic. I remember hearing Hero on John...

Bought this album dirt cheap, back in the 70s, just coz I liked the cover. Really liked the music, especially Long Dancer if I remember correctly. Haven't heard it in years coz it's in the attic ...

With all the talk of JPJ, surprised no-one has mentioned Them Crooked Vultures yet. Cracking album and JPJ was pretty bloody awesome on it.

It's much more than just 22cds. Best box set I've seen. Best xmas present ever! Hours of listening and reading pleasure.

I bought this recently and brought it on holidays with me. I rose earlier than the rest of the clan in the morning and enjoyed playing these cds and reading. Very relaxing. In all honesty, I can...

I can never understand what people have against Circus Of Heaven. I loved it when the album came out. I have just played it again and still love it. Sure, we all have hear things differently but it...

Terrific album. Wots uh the deal one of the great unsung (in every way!) Floyd songs.

Johnny Cash American III and American IV were recorded when he knew he was on his last legs - and the choice of songs covered made this evident. Very sombre but very good too.

good luck with that ........

yeah, I've just said the same thing to my son - reminds me of Pan's Labyrinth! The album is a real grower and gets better with each listen. The title track is awesome and the last track - I can't...

Yeah, Madrigal Meridian is terrific - one of the best pieces of music for driving. Slap that in the car cd player and take a trip -maybe along the Wild Atlantic Way in the West of Ireland. Mighty...

re: Bob Harris -
Were they ever on The Old Grey Whislte Test?

Yeah, let's re-evaluate Pros and Cons. It's still shite. End of re-evaluation.

You know what - he's right about this one. It didn't get the recognition it deserved. It is a magnificent album. The best album by any Floyd member post The Wall.

Yeah, it's a great way to listen to an artist's oeuvre. It helps if there is something to read while doing it. Maybe one of those "ultimate music guides" from Uncut or whatever. I recently done it...

Joe Jackson is a peculiar kind of genius. Just look a his career as a whole and you'll see a man who is not afraid to diversify. From his first album to his most recent, Duke, he has included pop,...

But not on the record stores. Have you not been to the Northside of Dublin - Henry St, Moore St, Abbey St Middle,Liffey St. Lwr, Earl St, or over in the Quays on the Southside there was always loads...

Yup, One World is defintely The One. Which is not to say that Bless The Weather, Grace and Danger and a number of others aren't absolutely brilliant. Long time fan and I like all his music. Just...

Thrak is an absolutely stonkingly good KC album. One of the better incarnations of KC. Thrakkattak on the other hand ........

Are you kidding me? If you haven't got this stuff already, it's a fantastic package. However, most people with a half interest in the great Hawkwind will have most if not all of this already. Who...

Why do you think no-one cares? I'm listening now and enjoying it.
All good stuff.

I agree wholeheartedly. I was gutted when I heard the sad news. Playing TD all weekend and a bit of solo EF. Saw TD in London last year and glad I did. It turns out it really was the final...

Have to agree here. First few albums were great but they slacked off mid-period, big time. But starting with Dust and Dreams, they went from strength to strength, culminating with their best song,...

Crikey - Wine Dark Sea brings me back. Lovely album - not sure about the Top Oc reference but Tub Bells maybe a bit closer. Have it on vinyl on some kind of label dedicated to new-agey-type music -...

For a really obscure title there's Stephen Caudel's "wine dark sea" which is one side long composition on each side of the album from 1986. Never heard it but read about it in a magazine and remember...

So, it's a guy in a boat that is floating on clouds, yeah? Maybe the message is simply "no waters"!

Crikey - where does one start? Or end, for that matter. Let's have a go anyway:

TD - Phaedra. Started me off on a long, long road of listening to Tangerine Dream (and lots of other similar...

You're right Harbottle. Though more widely known for his Ambient stuff, Another Day is a cracking album of songs.

Glad somebody mentioned Jungle book. First time I heard it I thought what the ....??!! But it's a beauty. Just turn up the volume a little.

Yup, that's pretty much the holy trinity right there.

Epsilon, though NGC891 from Aqua is pretty damned great.

Sylvian is a good choice - up to Blemish anyway.
Klaus with Lisa particularly good at night.
One World by John Martyn is classic late-night listening.
And maybe a bit of Nich Drake ......

Was also at Barbican . Made it over from Dublin with my prog-loving mate Bren, despite flight cancellation due to inclement weather. Totally worth the hassle. Fabulous night of music and not a...

Doremi is the better because of The Watcher. Also that perfect moment in Space Is Deep when it builds and builds before plummeting down, releasing the tension. Never bettered in any of the live...
