Couldn't give a monkey's for who or why this CD was recorded, it'll stand or fall on it's musical merit alone. Fan's theories, although valid for them are just that...theories,

Couldn't agree more about Voiceprint Colin, but let's not forget Eastgate were last to the table with their announcement. Pretty poor in my book and they have lost valuable sales because of it!

Yep. My criteria for musical merit has always been the same......the time the CD stays in my CD player .......or on the record player, back in the good old days.

I am more curious about how much money the Japanese co. need to pay TD in order to do such compositions...this is not a Sony project (1998) or movie scoring for commercial purpose it seems.

I guess we'll never know the answer to that.

As much as I'm looking forward to this series of discs..I just hope it's not something TD threw together. There are a few other recordings that give that impression. For instance Hollywood Years 1 & 2. Or Mota Atma.

Personally I didn't like Mota Atma, but I've never got the impression that TD threw music together on any record. If time was a factor, then the short recording times would be the worst records, however records like Zeit and Rubycon where both done very quickly (10 days and 2 weeks) :)

I've tried to like Mota Atma but can't get into it at all. It has a few good moments but thats it IMO. Things have changed since the 70's though. I just bought ELO's Out of the Blue on remaster. Jeff Lynne said they done it in 3 weeks and nowadays to make a double LP can take 2 years.

Having said that..Black Sabbath's & Led Zeppelins first records were done in about a day and theyre timeless albums IMO.

They're not bad, just not my cup o' tea. But I agree with some earlier posts about TD's return to the long-track format. I am giddy with anticipation. I just hope I can get the Nagasaki discs via snail mail here in the States, perhaps from Ricochet Dream. Call me a Luddite, but I still don't quite trust the Internet with my credit cards.
But I guess the Nagasaki things are a bit different from Methaphor. I presume it is different time in which it is recorded. It is made a few years ago, isn't it?
