Gone to earth and Secrets of the beehive are 2 of my favourite ever records, Dead bees on a cake one of the most disappointing.
-
This is one of those records that goes further than anything else i've ever listened to.
-
And this coming from an album David calls " Unfinished ". The first three solo albums are some of the finest of the 80's ( along with Mick's Dreams of Reason produce Monsters )

@xxxholographic It seems to get better with age, almost timeless!
-
@LIMERICKNAT1 Couldn't have put it better!
-
@xxxholographic Likewise, and it really does sound as good as it did then. In my list I put it side by side with Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells :)
-
Ethereal and dreamlike.
-
beautiful sounds...

gone to earth is more than music

I listened to Gone To Earth the first time shortly after it was released in '86, and I was blown away - it was hard to believe that someone human could put together something so incredible. More than twenty years later, I'm still in awe (and will continue to be) of Gone To Earth.
Thanks, David, for making something that the passage of time only serves to improve. You've made something genuinely beautiful.

Gone to Earth: the greatest album of my life; Loaded of summer, loves and memories. Answered Prayers is the epicentrum of that feeling. Never bored of it. Grazie Muscarines.
