Remembering, closely followed by Revealing. Both are okay and have their moments, but easily the two worst tracks on the album. Ancient and Ritual would be awesome if it weren't for so much padding.

High the memory carry on
Shame this little gem is going out one round too early - but Ritual ain't too shabby either...

All 4 tracks on Tales have a lot of great moments.
But, The Remembering is my least favourite of the remaining three. |

+1. 'The Ancients' sounds freaking radical to me. I probably memorized that riff and the cluster arpeggio off of Prog Rock Britannia instantly. 'The Remembering' seems to be somewhat draggy in a spot or two. Nonetheless, I like it a lot. I vote for 'The Remembering'.

Even though Ritual has some passages I really like, I remember liking The Remembering a bit better, so I go with ritual this time.

I see that my least least favourite track has been kicked. I vote The Remembering for reasons I don't need to repeat.

Jazz-rock conspiracy? Zappa and Miles played at the same festivals in the summer of '69 right BEFORE Hot Rats AND Bitches Brew were recorded. |
