    The only acts I recorded were Orbital and Seasick Steve. I saw the first 5 minutes of Orbital's set and it reminded me of a guided meditation session.
    The whole event looks very different from my sole visit to a Glastonbury festival back in 1978. An event so small it's virtually off record. Just about 500 people, I think, huddled in tents wondering if Hawkwind were going to appear. If they did, no one can remember. Including them.

    Recent and still waiting

    I’ve been listening to Ozric Tentacles quite a lot. I think I missed them because they appeared in 1983 just as we bought a house and so didn’t have any cash because the mortgage was around 50% of our income.
    Currently I’m streaming some acts from Glastonbury. The Kim Gordon set is fantastic and I also enjoyed Confidence Man. Still got more to watch.
    I have a backlog of CDs to play like Mars Hotel, Garcialive 21 the latest Joni Mitchell reissue box and at least 10 others. Hope to catch up one day.

    In all chaos there is a cosmos, in all disorder a secret order..

    Hey rockers & happy Monday!!!

    Even as we speak, as I continue my deep dive into late 1972, I am listening to 10/17/72. Very fine indeed, I shall enjoy it!!!

    So, today is the day TPTB announce the 1970 Fillmore West box, right????

    Every once in a while, it seems like the cosmos part, and something great plops into your lap.....

    I don't think I know better than what the cosmos has in store for me......

    Colin - excellent, thanks for letting me know. I was watching that dvd last night, and I feel the same way. Mind melting music, but terrible picture. The extras are a bit better - the ones from Glastonbury ( shame they aren't on tonight) and Reading have the best picture, and the guitar playing at Reading is stratospheric.

    These two box sets you have are considered to feature the most effective Ozric Tentacles music. There is an earlier one called "Vitamin Enhanced" - I missed out on the remastered version in the same style as the two you have - but the earlier one, on the Madfish label is okay - and has a great booklet. It's more formative, though. Quite a few tracks featuring Ed Wynne on his own. If you were just to get one, I'd go for "There Is Nothing". "Live Ethereal Cereal" features some thunderous live tracks from the mid 80's, but the sound quality is a bit poorer than the others.

    I discovered them through the Dead fanzine "Spiral Light" - must have been about 1990. They were amazing live, as you can probably imagine!

https://youtu.be/zPuyT6EtRQ0 interesting interview with Zimmy on his website last week, the most he's opened up in decades.... http://bobdylan.com/news/qa-with-bill-flanagan/ He is on an old blue eyes kick, has a new 3 CD set coming out this week of Sinatra, he's no Enrico Caruso but when he interprets Frank, at least he tries to do those immortal tunes justice.
