The Clash's Sandinista! would be quite an interesting one, if it didn't go on for about 2 days.

It's too long. sad yes

I think if it's an especially ~~wrong~~ long album, but nevertheless a very good one, we should formulate a strategy for listening to it.

e.g. I'm currently imagining that we could listen to Joanna Newsom's epic triple CD Have One On Me track by track.

I guess it's because I'm scared that Wendi won't listen to songs longer than 5 minutes. sad yes

I bought it but don't think I ever got through it...well not without chemical help.
It's an hour long.
I like it....but it just would not be suitable.

Anything Tangeriney ~~Dreary~~ Dreamy is problematic.

How about some prime Tange Dreams?

Excited

We might need to create further subforums to accommodate more and extreme sub-genres of music.

Enter here at ye peril!

We'll be forcing Wendi to live-review Edgar Froese and Michael Bundt next. llama

I was listening to that, it's cool and all, but you can only say "it's like watching a glacier encroaching on a Swiss daisy only slower, and backwards" for so long until you run out of things to say.

sad yes

I really like Ommadawn.

I quite like Hergest Ridge too.

And Tubliar Bells.

Ommadawn's my favourite though.

Apart from that interminable bit at the beginning of Side 2.
