I really dig 'The Garden' meself. wink
It's a great album, and one that I don't play enough in its entirety. I usually find myself skipping "Pater Noster" though frown

I'm on the bonus tracks now. Really like "A Long Time" and "This Jungle".

I wonder if the "Swimmer" tracks were inspired by the Burt Lancaster film...

Sacrilege! eek
Its a great, atmospheric track. The Human Host really gives the vocals a great, cavernous feel. The drum beat does make it sound like a dance track though.

One of my favourites from it is Night Suit. And the bonus track A Lifting Sky (on the 1993 reissue).

For longer than I can remember, This Jungle had been my alltime favourite JF song. I never understood why it was put on a B-side. The guitaring on it is brilliant. Same with Night Suit.

Which one ? Look closely at his film listings wink

Currently listening to The Drive EP. It just arrived in the mail an hour ago!

Talk Talk -- Laughing Stock and Spirit of Eden. I haven't listened to these in years, and I just got in the mood on Sunday. I haven't stopped as they are on playlist for work today as well.

I agree with Mr. Normall. Fine work, indeed.

Liquidscreamer: "Live from a room as big as a potting shed" (Rehearsals and demos)

"Scream", "Say hello, wave goodbye", and "Liquidlove." Amazing.

Over on the dubpod. What do you mean, what's that?

Cathedral Oceans III...

Oceanic is quite beautiful - and seems quite appropriate for the restoration work I'm currently doing on some very old family photos.

Abbey Road by The Beatles...

There's actually a bit of graffiti on the wall outside the Abbey Road Studios saying that "they were named after The Beatles album which had been recorded there".

It's amazing how a rumour - if left unchecked - can become the accepted version of the truth.

Appropriately enough today it's U2 and 'All That You Can't Leave Behind'...

I agree on this. COIII is great when working in Photoshop, or any other manipulation program.
