quite simple: what is your favorite track?

mine is "Desert Dream", by the way. that track has a passage that I call "at the grave of the unknown soldier". if you listen to it you will certainly guess which passage I refer to

This is an album that I enjoy from start to finish, but I understand what you are saying about "Desert Dream" and certainly know what part you are talking about. Simply sublime.

I actually think the track "Desert Dream" has 6 parts which I name this:

1) In the Ghost Town

2) Across the Desert

3) Sol caliente y fatamorgana

4) At the Grave of the Unknown Soldier

5) The Apparition

6) The Ghost Rider in the Sky

you can certainly see that my imagination runs wild for this track. my choice of Spanish for the 3rd part of the track shows that in my imagination I am in a Mexican desert

Hi,

I don't have a favorite, and I know I went backstage to meet them in the Greek Theater show, and was excited about seeing TD for the first and second time, in less than 2 months.

The great highlight for it all is the Greek Theater shows, and you might not remember but in those days, TD had lasers in their shows and none other than the folks at Lazerium were running them ... and guess where Lazerium is centered? Right above the Greek Theater (Griffith Observatory). And one of the highlights in the show at the Greek Theater was the trees on fire along with the music.

April 26 1977 Santa Monica Civic (1st tour) (front album picture from one of these shows)

July 12 1977 Los Angeles Greek Theater (2nd tour)(back picture of lasers in the trees, as if on fire)

Encore is recorded from the North American Tour in March/April 1977

I have never been able to decide which one I like better or worse ... I like them all and there is really no piece of music of theirs that I do not like. I'll skip this vote, but will remember very fondly and with great love, the wonderful feeling and memories, and one of those is going to the sisters for even considering their posting this ...

I visualize a lot of this stuff, but in many ways, while I can write poetry about it, rarely can I tell you what it is what I see, many times of which it is very far away, and difficult even to describe as it is not exactly "recognizable" in plain words. A strong part of my 2nd stage of dreaming.

... none of the hits, none of the time ... favoritism is not an artistic merit! www.pedrosena.com

Count me in for Desert Dream. It has that mysterious vibe I love so much.

Hey, if you ever want to come to South California, I know many places where to go in the beautiful Anza Borrego Desert, and we could also cross the border to Guadalupe Canyon in Mexicali, beautiful oasis, with amazing hot springs.

The entire album is fantastic. I'll throw a vote to CC

Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive
Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect.

I think they get better and better from beginning to end. Part of the Desert Dream crowd.

I was actually born in California and lived there for almost the first 25 years of my life

OK. so you know what I'm talking about regarding the desert. It's quite a magical place.

I have and love the album but I can't remember which track I like best...

I would listen to it... but not right now

the last track I listened to was

Asa by Russian Circles

currently listening to

Ascend To Oblivion by God Is an Astronaut

next up is

Ascendant Here On by Steven Wilson

I think you get the picture :)

Prog On!

I voted for Coldwater Canyon just to see all the tracks have equal votes! Its all a bit 'Meh' for me in all honesty. I much prefer the Poland live album that can much later. They never bettered that imo.
