Stone Birds – Needs polish but not bad
Van Der Graaf – Pretty meh IMHO. Just don’t have the ear for prog.
Psychadelic Avengers – Pretty interesting… I don’t think its overly special, and consistent guitar such as this isn’t really my thing, but still, interesting. They live up to their name.
Prudence – Nice folkish rock ditty, not a fan of the vocals really though.
Emerson, Lake & Palmer – More prog. More interesting than VDG though, still too much keyboard
Al di Meola – Probably one of my less favourite Meola tracks… Similar to PA, doesn’t really hold my interest being a pure guitar track (Well close to it )
Love – Not bad. But again, nothing special.
Melt Banana – Decent track… And not normally a noise/scream fan. Not a fan of the normal vocals though.
Fats Waller – Classic. Not my favourite work, but a nice find in the compilation.
Mungolian Jet Set – Experimental bluesy jazz. Interesting though, good field recordings, trials off a bit much.
Pigface – Well I thought it was good Interesting construct, even though I ain’t a fan of the German language in music.
Porcupine Tree – One of the better Porcupine Tree songs. Not normally a fan of theirs, probably like the folk sound moreso than the normal psych/prog sound. Got a bit boring.
Norman Jean – Ugh… Skipped it. Just not my thing.
Karl Sanders – Epic… Wasn’t huge on it in the end though, Interesting no doubt but everything seems far off rather than in your face.
Sgt. – Post rock… The type I am not overly keen on. A nice night time track I presume, when in a chilled state, but probably not helped by being in this comp. Fairly bored fairly quickly.
Fall of Troy – Horrible vocals…

Sorry if I offended
