      Not on the usual suspects that I can see.

        First album I ever bought! This is a CD rip though.

            Crazy Life by Anna of the North great album to chill to

            It's surprising what you can do even when you have no idea what your doing :)

                  Everyone should give it one listen at least so you can make your own minds up.

                    ooooo....that blue is gorgeous!

                    I did listen when he release Money, but I turned to something else immediately. Guess I wasn't fair...

                    I used to adore him, saw all of his shows, but as they became more and more about Roger, and we should all think like Roger, I got turned off.

                      It’s interesting but I’m not sold on it. This is far more listenable

                        I have that, gave it one listen, and never again. I'll have to pull it out. It certainly isn't as pretty as the blue .

                        But there are so many that I have thought "meh" only for them to grow on me and some turn into favorites. Gotta give them time I guess (no pun intended).

                          If anyone has always felt that DSOTM was sorely in need of a narration track, this will be very welcome. I made it halfway through. It might be interesting to try running this through a karaoke processor, to find out if it's possible to null out Waters' voice.

                            I have digitised it to FLAC and giving it a second listen. It might grow on me

                              Is there a hidden deeper meaning to the blue vynil?

                                Indeed, it might well grow on me, too, if I gave it another chance, but I probably won't. Fifty years ago, I might have been willing to try again. One of the disadvantages of age is a decline in mental flexibility, along with the well-known decline in hearing. In this particular case, I quickly grew weary of trying to either (1) understand what's being said in a coarse whisper, or (2) tune it out. I succeeded at neither and have no wish to make another attempt.

                                The performance is unsuitable for me, but others may find it rewarding. As in many other cases, I regret (slightly) missing out on the pleasure.
