The last song on this CD gave me a heart attack when I heard it for the first time. I swear at the very end he says "they're gonna attack you" over and over (when the lyrics are "I will protect you"). So damn creepy.
to be fair, I dont have the tracks in order. Im not getting that gritty Division Bell feel out of it. Some similarities the cuts dont seem that rememberable or stand out on the album. I give it a 7 out 10 because I like Pink Floyd. Only cause its not remastered old songs which they had a habit of going for with albums like Echos. Basically a greatest hits box. The material feels new considering I loved "On an Island" it glides into that mood mostly for me.. The end track on the division bell "Hello?" "Yes?" "Is that Charlie?" "Yes" "Hello Charlie" "Great" is a phone conversation between Pink Floyd manager Steve O'Rourke and Polly Samson's son Charlie.. When this come out in 94 the internet was an infant. So it took time to learn this was not Roger Waters on the recording as some claimed it to be..
Apparently Queen will also release a 'new' album (with Freddie Mercury on vocals). Haven't heard it yet.
"Hejira" by Joni Mitchell on cassette,recorded in 1976 when I was five years old.Lots of nicely layered chorused guitars.A peaceful and relaxing listen,and a glimpse of the tales of somewhat post-hippie California and North America I have never visited,and maybe never will.
