I'm going pretty obscure here. Regular John Peel listeners and/or Liverpool residents in their teens -ish in the 80s might've come across these two sadly overlooked tunes. Used to have the 45s but now can only hear them on YT.

Treated myself to this - Japanese import CD of the Steven Wilson remix of the Close To The Edge album… very nice!

Oooh, interesting.  What has he done with it?  This was the first record I ever bought at the tender age of 11 after saving up my sixpences pocket money and has long been a favourite of mine.

OK bit of a step change from the usual on here. Hopefully the link will work.

I've been listening to dozens of versions, trying to get it thoroughly into my head and to me this is the best version I've come across. I could listen to this on a loop all day, the acoustics of the venue and feeling the musicians play with raises the hairs on the back of my neck at some points.

Bit of a guilty pleasure considering the stuff I usually listen to.  Marina and the Diamonds.

 

I find this difficult to pigeonhole; I really like the vocal delivery.  I watched a bit of her set at Lollapalooza in Chile over the weekend and it was quite brilliant in a look-at-me-I'm-bonkers kind of way.

That's no guilty pleasure, Marina is incredible!
