HW: Musings on Epoch Eclipse

[Dave Greenhalgh]

CDZone finally got around to airmailing me my copy of Epoch
Eclipse which arrived yesterday.  At last I see what all the
fuss is about.  It sounds astonishingly similar to one of my
"Traffic Jam" MDs!  I'll take that as a compliment to my
taste in HW.

It's good to see that the fine old HW tradition of exactly
matching the sleeve notes to the track list is still being
observed.  Others have mentioned the 19 tracks listed vs the
18 on the CD.  Did anyone spot where the Hurry on Sundown
demo that the sleeve notes hint to being on the album might
be tucked away?

Last cogitation from me.  I have to admit to disappointment
in the Scourge of the Earth Silver Machine.  If we were
going to get a radical re-interpretation (isn't that what
"remix" is all about?) then, IMHO - which is worth exactly
what you're paying for it - Future Reconstructions has the
edge for adventurousness.

"NO TO THE LEMMY TAX", aah nostalgia.)
