Which Kashmir?

the original studio version


really, puffy daddy?

Yeah, I really love the unledded album too. Amazing versions of all songs, some dramatically re-worked. The only one I didn't really like at all was "No Quarter", which for me was totally destroyed. I wish "Rain Song" had been included on the CD instead of that one.

Intended for Prog Related, but perhaps this particular song is actually adequate for a Prog Poll anyway. However, 4 distinct versions of the same song, all great for me and have a really hard time choosing my favourite one, which do you like better? And since from time to time I see people including some sort of "Joke" options, I throw in the rap sampled version of the song

However, I like the original one because it's got the original orchestrations and the drums are really wonderful (actually, I'm not really sure if this song feature real orchestrations or they were done on keyboards). I like the original 70's live versions because they add some nice sounding guitars that are lacking (or barely audible) on the original version. I like the Unledded version because that one certainly has a string ensamble playing on the song, and it's got a bit more variation, and also has some nice guitars, but I don't like that we get a bit less of the main theme (which contradicts my liking it to have more variation, actually), and I'm not sure about the drumming, the 70's ones have some killer powerful drumming, here it's replaced by some ethnic drumming that gives it a different feel. The version of celebration day is the heaviest on the use of guitar, which also sounds great, and some of the melodies have sounds like being played by a chuch organ instead of a string enssamble. Which one I prefer, I'm not yet sure.
