i recently completed my collection of 'the good sh*t' with
Doc At The Radar Station which is brilliant,
Shiny Beast just pips it methinks but it's only been a couple of days.
Strictly Personal aswell i f*cking love; it's known for having a generic 'psychedelic' mix which the Captain hated (phasing, flanging, all that ****) but it's pure genius end-to-end I think
Never bothered with the commercial-period stuff, but this performance from that era is, you have to admit, otherworldly
