One Times One

Christmas morning here and one times one is on the turntable. Really like the tracks with "vocals". "Sadness of Echinaton Losing the World Child "and "Gleeful Poets Crying Softly" being my favourites at the moment. Happy Xmas everyone.

Looking forward to Thursday when the post is back at work. Looks like the OTO cd is a good one.

It's solid - no mistake!

Vocals are interesting - I suspect some new kit that simulates not just oohs and aahs but allows parts to be made from phomenes. Just a wild guess.

Great sounds in track one especially - reminds my of the Good Bad and Ugly for a reason I can't pin down.

Modesty and Greed though is a fine revision to a favourute live track of mine - I'll not say what I'd hate to spoil it for a fan - but I can't help considering who the modest, who the greedy?

Very good release. Lots of very interesting sounds and Edgar shaped guitar soloing.

Very true Redziller; Modesty and Greed - very interesting title for something that most fans will be familiar with. Makes you think.

I agree about the formant vocalizing. Just stunning. This will be on my mp3 player and in my ears for weeks.

Track One is spectacular. It is the pop music of the future which I have always dreamt about.

The opening track here "Sadness Of Echnaton Losing The World Child" is an absolute beauty IMHO with a very nice female vocal and some great guitar work

SUPERB

Edgar guitar solo playing has been long misssed and it's great to hear him dust down the old chunk of wood. Hopefully he'll feel like playing at the show in April.

Have to agree Chris,the guitar work on this CD is certainly a stand out especially on the said SOELTWC (Man Instrumental) and the Cool Breeze of Brighton-esque (Modesty & Greed)

Always a pleasure to hear EF on the axe

.
On tracks 5 and 6 Edgar seems in romantic mode and both are a very relaxing listen

I've had it and Booster on repeat play most of today and they're all rather awesome.

....One Times One and Booster seem to be the perfect accompaniment for each other. May be they should have been released as a triple CD. Just a thought.
