I prefer the 30+ minute version of Moonloop from Transmission IV.

Then again, I pretty much love every option in this poll.




Dave that really is a release I'd love to have.  The only time I've ever seen it available it's been £120-130 or so, which is a bit excessive.  I'll just have to keep watching out for it, the two versions on TSMS will just have to do for now.

I just love that era of PT.

Anesthetize.

When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

Gonna sound like a damn hipster, but my favorite long composition by PT is The Cross/Hole/Yellow Hedgerow Dreamscape from Tarquin's Seaweed Farm. Love the Prince cover (which Steven apparently dislikes?) and the way it segues into a psychedelic guitar anthem. Fond memories of driving back from a PT concert with the car full of people who only knew the band's material post-In Absentia, putting on the tape and hear them cry in boredom.

Eh eh. Yep, space/psychedelic PT is what makes it for me. Sure, I like every period, even parts of "The Accident", but the early years is where the good stuff's at.

I voted for 'The Sky Moves Sideways'

I feel the same. I love stuff like Nil Recurring and Deadwing too, but there's a certain je ne sais quoi about those early years that pips it for me.

I know, the pricing of it these days is absolutely ridiculous. Reissue would be nice methinks.
