Seems like I got what I deserved trying to like your post

Finishing this session with breakfast in America. Just a perfect album.
Maybe take the long way home is my favourite track. I love the aching harp intro.
If only goodbye stranger didn’t fade out.
Then I have to figure out what to do in Starfield. If I can’t then I’ll play golf (not outside)

Only 5 minutes… :grinning:

Imagine only having the same number of :heartbeat: on Venus with a 5832 hour day.
19 hours left.

Just Qobuz 24/192, such a good live recording for the time frame. I bet the vinyl is spectacular as well. I love the fact that Joni lets everyone in the band some room to get their chops in. :star_struck:

I agree we found it hard to connect with it. But it had great visual flair but it didn’t stay on one bit for long whirls through things. Felt like it had been edited quite heavily.

I would be interested to see a biopic on Karajan. But I suspect, if it was even semi-accurate, you’d finish the film hating him! :rofl:

Rod, I don’t know if you would agree that many what should have been great live performances were badly recorded in what would be seen as an afterthought unfortunately. YES - Yessongs is one of my disappointments, I have the original vinyl, CD, and the HDtracks supposed 24/192 remastered? All equally poorly done. Just one that stands out for me. I don’t think Steven Wilson could improve what is just a horrible recording job.

I think it’s like that for most biopics. Flawed geniuses make more interesting stories.

Maybe we should get a Texas theme going

Hence why we’ve already had two mainstream films about Steve Jobs!

I found ‘Tar’ watchable. Another ‘flawed genius’ character. The plot took a disappointing ‘turn’ towards the end, and some scenes were just incredulous. But watchable nevertheless.

I bought the collection of these on BandCamp and I am making my way through them start to finish as a set of storied post-rock album/books. They come with both story and instrumental versions.
Interesting stuff
