This is turning into a very good journal!
I think you were right in saying that "Games Without Frontiers" wasn't as atmospheric as the other tracks: the song was ruined by Kate Bush in my opinion. In fact I remember having a big argument with Il Duce over this. I also think that Peter Gabriel is a fantastic singer, and produces some intimate and personal songs. Sorry to bring it up again, but "Solsbury Hill" is a beautiful song, and definitely his best in my opinion.
Concerning "Pablo Honey", it is very easy to either succumb to the temptation of saying that it is great just because it is a Radiohead album (I would have!), or slate it because it sounds boring and unambitious. I think you walked the middle line very well.
Keep up the good work, I think that this is turning into an excellent set of reviews.
