@AndyWilkinson Ditto and ditto! This song is pure aural beauty. Obvious props to Tim Buckley for this wonderful composition, but TMC and Liz Fraser bring a magic to the song that not even Buckley himself could have conceived.

Aah, warm vibe of the old Festive 50 days rushing over me as I think of this. Lovely choice.

@longjohnhill, @BertrandRustles and @jayeloop - I've never forgotten the first time I saw Liz Fraser sing. Stumbled across it on TV - she was singing Carolyn's Fingers, and her eyes are just mesmerising. I didn't know anyone could look like that. It was just one of those big Wow moments.

@dutchzaphod if you cut off the first two 1s, you're getting closer to its place on my personal list. (speaking of, still have to do that top 10 list...)

They were really the culmination of what 4AD was all about (until the Pixies came along of course, after which everything changed...)

@thisismymistake Couldn't agree more. Any thoughts on Harold Budd, BTW?

@AlicejustMay Sorry, I kinda know more of him that I know him (meaning, I listened to some of his pieces out of context and liked them but didn't follow up on it).
