Amazon give the following description:"The world 6PM inhabits is that of Phil Manzanera's unconscious memories of psychedelic London. It's a world of dreams, surreal cacti, Captain Beefheart, the early Soft Machine, Pink Floyd, the 'Christmas on Earth' event at Earls Court, Fairport Convention, Terry Riley, John Fowles' 'French Lieutenant's Woman', Julie Christie in 'Far From the Madding Crowd', Miles Davis, The Beatles with Sgt Pepper and the Magical Mystery Tour. Lyrically the songs look backwards and forwards to the present, they speak of loss, 'Broken Dreams', love found 'Love Devotion', friendship 'Wish You Well', dedicated to the late Ian McDonald, and much more. The music is beautifully layered and textured, at times almost classical, featuring oboe, viola, and double bass interwoven with Manzanera's incomparably expressive guitar lines. Given the cast of world famous players on 6PM, it is no surprise that the sonic landscape of 6PM is rich, startling and unique."
You see what I mean? Look at that review; look at that line-up; why it even says "Captain Beefheart"; there are three customer reviews and they're all 5 stars; and I love 801 Live - so why am I even hesitating?
For some reason I'm still looking for another opinion 'though and unfortunately there's AMG review for this one, so I just wondered if anyone here had heard this and if so - what did you think of it?
