Tone, I've commented before. I was the first to request Firebird and to thank you when you put it up; I about how you must have been thrilled to see how the video matched up -- you may recall all that.
Well, I've been visiting these same vids over the last couple years or so on nights when I am alone and have some 'fun stuff' at my disposal. These occasions are not frequent, as I'm a family man now, forty years old. I just want you to know that I still appreciate you. Thanks, man.
My favourite song from the Electric Storm LP. Beguiling, bewitching, ethereal, otherworldly...It's not about sex, it's not about rock 'n' roll. It's about the other. It's about opening your worldly mind and experiencing otherness, an alternative to everyday thought and consciousness.
'Take me...and you'll begin to understand. Isn't it obvious what the 'me' really is??????
I agree with comments that rate this unique piece of music with highest possible grade...
I listened it a lot in seventies and for years allmost forgot it... Until last decade or so when these songs every time when I play them again strike me with unspoiled modernity, melancholy anxiety, some kind of poetic illness and above all - with beauty beyond compare... One of 5 greatest albums I ever listened. Perhaps greatest...
@cinober1 Never stopped listening to it. Still got the original record and a digital copy as well. Drop a tab and settle back. By the end of it you are curled up in a ball.
Omg why haven't i heard of them before now? i know many many prog bands (King Crimson, Yes, Nektar, Camel, + 100's of other). This is sooo ahead of it's time (1968!). Incredible!
This album is beyond most folks comprehension. The typical first blush response is a far cry from what it really is. Forget the stereotypical responses and listen to the album for cripes sakes. Go ahead, try and create a mood with the depth White Noise has. I challenge anyone. This release has stood the test of time and any attempt at anything similar pales in comparison. Period.
@therealKINDLE Try listening to some Broadcast ("Unchanging Window" for example). Just like back in the 60's (and every decade for that matter), you have to skim below the surface to find the really good music.
@Jarren202 Oh I have a massive collective of WARP Records albums & yes, I totally agree that Broadcast have got it spot on. I Love Tom Jenkinson AKA Squarepusher) also. He uses very little & ancient equpment 2compose his material.
The Top 40... PAH! That isn't music. Manufactured waveform. Oh Baby this, Oh Baby that.. It's complete Crap! lol
I thought I was the only one with that album. Thing is I have two of the same album but they have different covers. The first one has 88 pictures of the same ear put out by Island Records. After getting wore down I picked up another copy which has the lighting bolt cove put out by Antilles Record.
the same thing happened to me a decade earlier....one cant deny there's an evil element to it...the whole album is born in the occult-I didnt understand what is was back then but I know this album suggests all sorts of gnostisism-something we need to stay away from, thats for sure! Satan placed the idea in our heads from the beginning that we could be like gods if we just ate from the tree of knowledge....the last lyric says it all........ "take me and you'll begin to understand"
There is no God, there is no Satan, there is no freakin tree of knowledge - and after death you just dont exist anymore unless somebody remembers you as father or mother - somebody on this sandcorn in the universe. The human race is just a joke, definitely a good one, but in a trillion years the cockroaches will have a different kind of humor. Meanwhile I will get me another glass of whisky and enjoy life as long as I can. Wish you a nice day too.
take me says the woman, and you'll begin to understand ...love awareness, sexual enlightnement and then you will see...and share the reality and love.

I Can't explain how this Track makes me feel. It's a Work of art. Pure Brilliance. And Who ever did this Video has done the Music Credit. Well Done. It would be an Honour if we could exchange E-mails with you, & with ANYONE else who is Beguiled by this album. Totally ineffable.. This is the Kind of thing you would expect to see on WARP RECORDS©.
