The first. A PF album done on the cheap? ;) Love it to be reissued with all the rehearsal material filmed for promo vids put onto a DVD. Any spare tracks waiting for the worms?

On An Island, lovely album. Grows ever more languid as it passes.

About Face was a bit too mainstream for me - I seem to expect more (sic) from DG than material others could easily do. Good album -it is DG - but it seemed like he was doing as others do (Phil Collins, David Bowie) rather than being more original. 

Debut album for me if I had to choose...

	Just broke the 21-21 tie between the 1st and Island. I've never cast a vote that really mattered before. The first album has some cool riffage and an easy going feel, but I've been listening to About Face for the past few days (found it for a dollar in the LP bin) and really like some tracks. Yeah, it's produced for radio play but it goes down a lot easier than it used to, especially side 1 and Metaphysical on side 2.
	I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there.....
