Nice review Dave. Quite a difficult album to describe, and you've done a sterling job there. I've got the vinyl re-issues, which don't have any track listings, so it is interesting to see you analyse it track by track. I've tended to think of each side of the albums as a whole entity, despite the gaps between tracks, as I don't have track titles to identify each segment by. I'm not sure I would enjoy the albums as much without a decent hifi, as you rightly point out in the review - it seems important to be able to hear as much as possible of the wide frequency range for the full effect.
Fascinating stuff, and I'm looking forward to the third vinyl release in the series very much.
