I'm not suprised (by the results of this poll that I've certainly seen before, lol) -- 'Rubies' got so much love on ILM when it was released vs. everyone everywhere being kinda down on 'Dreams' (check Bejar's riffing on "Grief Point") -- In the end, though, I played 'em both out, along with the three before (still haven't heard Thief, not crazy about CoD)

AS an aside, I and my wife both LOVE Grief Point.

yeah but like... you're self-loathing english on the mediterranean, innit?

Bejar featuring on a new Sandro Perri track. Very nice!

that's great!

thanks for the heads up

Seeing him do a solo show at the end of the month. Interested to see how the lush sounding stuff from his recent records comes across sans band.

I saw him do a solo show last night, it was cool. he played songs from all over his career - at least one from every album except Ideas for Songs and City of Daughters and also one new one called I think 'Crimson Tide' that was reminiscent of the first section of Rubies and a lyrical sequel to The Laziest River.

hope he manages to bring the full band out here some day.
