I know very little about the Enid. I saw them live once at Reading festival and didn't rate them at all - maybe I was too young to understand. Anyway, I'm trying to track down the album which has a song that goes: 'This song is a sad song, a bad song' I had it on tape (just that track), loved it and cant find it anywhere. Anyone know which album this song is on, from my vague clues?? ------------- Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy! |

Hi Blacksword, the superb track of which you speak is "Summer" from the 1985 double album, "The Spell". ------------- Perception is truth, ergo opinion is fact. |

Blacksword, get the first album, "In the Region Of The Summer Stars." This is a great place to start. ------------- Perception is truth, ergo opinion is fact. |

How do you rate Touch Me? This is the only album of theirs I
ever had or have ever heard. I picked it up second hand at the time it came out, but never really got into it. |

I personally love "Touch Me", but only having "accessed" their unique style of music via "In the Region..", "Six Pieces" and "Something Wicked This Way Comes", plus a few mind blowing gigs. TM was my first Enid Album too, and I found it a bit weighty and 'classical', but then I caught their show at Reading Fest. '83. The rest is history..... ------------- Perception is truth, ergo opinion is fact. |

Aerie Faerie Nonsense, every time - 'Fand' is one of those essential pieces; pure symphonic progressive rock! -------------

I would go with "In The Region of the Summer Stars" also. As symphonic as it gets.

"In the Region Of The Summer Stars." I have been utterly converted since buying this album (two weeks ago...). It's fantastic!!!
