I bought Frances the mute and Deadwing yesterday. Deadwing is so far a dull affair.I remember The The doing an album called Naked self which is very similar and i have not seen it reviewed on this site.Nor should it be as it is not Prog end of story. Naked self is a better CD too. Anyway the point of this ramble is that on my computer i only see parts a and b of cassandra Geminni? Does anyone else have this problem? Most reviews say parts a to e are the best on the album. Am i missing tracks? Oh and F the M is a monstrous beast invoking every band that has ever been from Abba to Zappa. My head has been twisted inside out and mashed with a steak tenderiser from listening to this cd. I'm still working out whether it is a masterpiece or a rambling unholy racket. It certainly is not Barry White ------------- There stands Olias to outward to build a ship Holding within all we hope to retain The frame will be so built to challenge the universe Clasped with the skins of the fish of the plain |

I just checked on a cd player , again only 12 tracks with Cassandra lasting less than 2 minutes? Can someone who has this album confirm the number of tracks please?Thanks in advance ------------- There stands Olias to outward to build a ship Holding within all we hope to retain The frame will be so built to challenge the universe Clasped with the skins of the fish of the plain |

Are you looking at it through windows media player? The tracks are: 1. cygnus.. 2. the widow 3. l'via.. 4. miranda.. 5 and onwards. cassandra geminni I think it was done like this to make it have the same number of tracks as a regular album - otherwise with only 5 tracks their label would pay them for an EP not an LP.

Thanks In windows Media v10 i get this list 1Cygnus...vismund cygnus, 2Cygnus...vismund cygnus, 3Cygnus...vismund cygnus,4 Cygnus...vismund cygnus,5 the widow,6 La Via l'aviaquez,7 Miranda, 8 Miranda,9 Miranda, 10 Miranda, 11 Cassandra gemini, 12 Cassandra gemini. The back of the CD lists all of the above and parts c d and e to cassandra gemini. The total running time for cassandra is 0.46 for part a and 0.53 seconds for part b. On my CD player (denon) it is the same only 12 tracks so it seems i am missing 3 tracks?

your cd is fine it is the way windows media player reads the track listing. refer to my previous post for the actual track listing...i.e. cassandra geminni is actually track 5 through 12. ------------- "...misty halos made visible by the spectral illumination of moonshine." |

On my Cd player Cassandra starts as track 5 and runs through to track 12. Therefore the track listing on windows media is incorrect. Thanks for your assistance. Still its confusing as the track listing on the cd does not match the playing order. Weird! ------------- There stands Olias to outward to build a ship Holding within all we hope to retain The frame will be so built to challenge the universe Clasped with the skins of the fish of the plain |

Like I said, the tracks include cassandra geminni's suite/movements, so that the CD would look like an LP rather than a 5 track EP in the eyes of their label! enjoy! ------------- "...misty halos made visible by the spectral illumination of moonshine." |
