    Thank you, Iain! Great reviews of a great group! I was fortunate enough to see them live twice: first time in NYC on their 1977 debut US tour and then again, as you mentioned, in Scottsdale, AZ in 1992. My favorites would be Quichotte, Logos, Ricochet, Encore and Soundmill Navigator.

    Hi Iain, i have the album on both cd and vinyl. its a classic album IMO and one of two that reignited my interest in music at that time. i had gone off music around 1987-ish when it felt like everything in the charts was a Stock,Aitken,Waterman piece of crap. it ended up being "jagged little pill" and Osais' "morning glory" albums that got me back. i havent heard or owned an Alanis Morissette album i did not like, her album from three or four years ago called "little forks in the road" which was really good too. i would agree with you that side 1 is probably slightly stronger than side 2 but it is almost the prefect album IMO hope it warms up for you - Lloyd

My favourite live track has to be from 'The Sessions III', specifically track 9 (9:10PM Session, Pt 2 - Live at Volksbühne, Berlin). Cheers for a quality video!

In my opinion the debut album version with 'A Whiter Shade of Pale' as the first song (I think it's the US version) is better then the UK Version without that song.
