Good man....I gave it a good going over at the weekend and while it's still a terrific album, it's definitely not easy listening which suits me fine :) Side one is the stunner though with the harmonies while sides 2 and 3 being little bit more obstuse; Side 4 is the experimental side and, to me, a brave nod to improv and noise....I can understand why I hated it at first and also why the critics never gave it a chance, then or now...

On constant vinyl rotation since I got it last September and loving it to bits, warts and all. Spotted it for the first time yesterday behind the counter at Tower. As far as I could make out it was retailing for €89.99....Not bad for 16 sides :) Amazon are looking for £144.99 minus p&p!!!!
