Got my copy of Donkey Rhubarb today in Toronto. If you act quick, Republic Records should still have a few left. So far they're the only ones in Toronto who have it. Otherwise, it'll be a week or so before anybody else gets a copy. Just a few points I thought I should mention. The title track is excellent. RDJ is back into old form with fast beats and noisy looping! I think that the disc is worth the asking price alone for this first track. But, what about the praised Phillip Glass instrumental of Icct Hedral? I can't see that he did much. It seems like its just a straight to orchestra version, with no real style or flare. Am I missing something, or is this the general impression? Oh, and I won't say that this Aphex Twin disc is for everyone. I already got in trouble for this once....
