While that was an interesting experience listening to TD in the church (the candles were atmospheric), I def would have liked it to be much much louder. As I actually thought it was quiet. Although not sure if the P.A. could have coped as it was distorted in some places.

Found this review today

"Phaedra is to EM what Beatles Sgt Pepper’s is to rock; a pioneer album that will influence lot of musicians and will revolutionize the world of experimental, psychedelic and electronic music. "

I'm curious, when the rythms give way to the gentle emotive passage before the playground ending on side 1

Do you get a picture in your head, does it change or does the picture become integral to the track

Me, I get prehistoric Terradactyls flying circles over windswept cliffs, primordial seas lashing at the rocks below, always have done always will.

Does anyone get anything different?

Phaedra does invoke strange imaginings. I am really begining to love this album as a whole. Historical and timeless and an album I simply never tire of from start to finish.
