On any post, if the link is no longer good, leave a comment if you want the music re-uploaded. As long as I still have the file, or the record, cd, or cassette to re-rip, I will gladly accommodate in a timely manner all such requests.

A Crack in Melancholy Time

 

The Legendary Pink Dots are one of my top ten bands. I've seen them twelve times. I have nearly all their myriad releases. I buy everything new as it comes out (LPD or Edward Ka-Spel or the Silverman or Tear Garden...whatever).

That said, the 1990s was a halycon era for the group to my ears. From 1990s The Crushed Velvet Apocalypse onward through the 90s: The Maria Dimension; Shadow Weaver; Malachi (Shadow Weaver pt. II); 9 Lives to Wonder; on & on to 1999s Live at the Metro...everything was perfection. 

 



 

Ryan Moore had not left for Twilight Circus Dub Sound System. Martijn De Kleer & Niels van Hoorn were still on board. If you're looking for a jumping in spot for this incredible band, then this is the era.

    A band I've always been intrigued by and wanted to hear more of. I only have one of these, so thanks for fulfilling a wish.

    My pleasure, rev. In the label list to the right under Legendary are numerous other postings I've done of this imo great band. Always glad to grant a wish or two.

    Thanks N0 -- this is a band I completely missed and when I've run across their name haven't had enough context to know where they fit into the musical multiverse. Looking forward to getting to know them!
