Definitely not, I get extremely emotional everytime I hear Song Of The Whale Part 1. As soon as that intro kicks in it's goosebumps. That track means so much to me.

I confess, I had a lump in my throat, but put that down to the Tetleys Extra Smooth (not my favourite)!

The crescendo of that track is just magical.... everything just builds up to that moment and the sense of expectation and tension waiting for it to happen is amazing. Everyone has their own personal opinion as to what is for them TD's finest hour and that has to be mine without any shadow of a doubt. :D

Didn't like Hyperborea much when it was first released. Must have given it a cursory listen and then put it aside.

At some point I must have accidently put the title track down on to a tape which I had in the car. I have a clear recollection of driving the car through Sussex in a thunder-storm at 6:00 AM when the track started and thinking "What's this, it's fantastic?".

From there I dug out the album and gave it a proper listen. Whilst it's not up there with the likes of Tangram and Logos it contains a lot of good music. Least favourite track was Spinx Lightning............. that's until the Astoria show.

I love what they've done to the track, given it a new coat of paint and go-faster stripes.

I love the the first three tracks, as I have already said before Sphinx Lightning lacks something IMO must give it another try after listening to the excellent rework.
