I don't agree! I still love that album - palette of sounds very large in
part due to Jamie Muir ('Percussion and Allsorts') who went on to become a
monk. Exiles is wondrous, Talking Drum - all of them!
A friend just gave me a KC compilation called 'A Beginners Guide to the
ProjeKcts' which is pretty fascinating - I'd stopped following them after
Three of a Perfect Pair, but think I'll have to pick up the thread again.
All the best,
Colin.
