Not so keen on that Cluster track.

Thanks for the responses.

That Cluster track was a last minute change. I had Naked City's Sunset Surfer in the poll, which I love, but then Cluster came to mine and so I took that out and added Cluster's "Hollywood" which may be the first Cluster track I go into and Zuckerzeit was my first album by Cluster (first heard it about 20 years ago ago). Much more recently I go into the album Sowiesoso. I actually felt very unsure about my selection at the time, but that is track that connected with me quite recently. Mind you, this is one poll which works best if people don't really care much for everything.

I had originally thought about going with The Herald which I feel shares some qualities with Sea Song being quite melancholic. "Winter Is A Coloured Bird" also shares some qualities but is quite dynamic (and I love it). Often I choose "Little Red Robin Hood Hit the Road" off Rock Bottom (now that is dynamic and I find such a joy), but I did figure "Sea Song" would be more likely to get some reaction and it was the first Wyatt song I connected with. Rock Bottom is such a treasure to me, whimsical and poignant, tragic yet life-affirming, but I understand that it would not be to many tastes on the whole. And I could compare it to Blackstar (the album) in that way which I know you also don't like (could be depressing, maybe as I have depression, but like to try to keep a positive outlook, and a kind of existential angst, I like to hear music that speaks to me on a certain level that I identify with).

It appeals to my kind of sensitivity.

By the the way, these do take quite some time to put together, but it's all worth it if I can connect with a few people and get to "feel" a little bit how others feel. It amazes how how direct music can be to the emotions and of course for all of us here it is deeply, profoundly meaningful. Its not just entertainment, but part of our being, and lots of us have that desire to connect with others who are equally passionate. Aside from enjoying reading the responses, chatting and hopefully connecting with people, it is interesting to see who these topics connect with or find interesting enough to want to comment. Sometimes responding and voting in poll does become more like a routine, just something to do, and not because one really cares, of course. I figured some might complain about how I framed this, but I am interested in trying to get to know better what individuals in your community like and don't like. And I really appreciate those who make the effort to try to support each others topics and explore each other's interests even if they are different from our own. It kind of does show you how your friends are, the ones you can rely on, since friends tend to lend support to friends.

There were more songs on this list that I don't know very well (or at all) but I know I've never ever found anything by Cluster that I've enjoyed, so he gets my vote.
