lol :D...no, there's no right or wrong, you can only only connect to music that means something to 'you', if the 70's ain't your thing then it doesn't matter how much other people go on about it.

1986 re-mixed or not there is some wonderful music on this album 8)

The title track especially still gives me great listening pleasure........ :D
I finally posted a "Jimbo Review" of Green Desert on my blog. Appreciate any comments!

Greeen Desert was the first TD album I bought back in the early 90's, then I bought White Eagle and it all started from there for me!
I love the main track, it means so much to me, I bought it at a certain time in my life that has many good memories for me.

The title track is pretty epic. Even if the last 5 min are a bit twee…

White Clouds is interesting historically (both for TD and me personally) but tends to be forgotten these days.

I like the mood on Indian Summer. It has adequate breathing space.
