It started out fine and interesting. But this album is about 15 to 20 minutes too long.

This is a very based description. I had a bargain bin copy for $3 in the year I started, but offloaded for the same value about a year later.

Anyways...
This is good. But to me, not good enough. There are interesting segments paired with a few obnoxious ones.

But I do seriously think this is a great album, even though I prefer the next two installments over this one. It has a painstakingly crafted sound that pulls in a variety of instruments to test the range of any system. He's a composer who took the music in a novel direction that was copied to the point that it became cliche in film scores. But for Mike it's about the sonic exploration of a peaceful trip and his focus on making everything crystal clear is something I really appreciate with how sloppy a lot of contemporary composers are on that front.

Sheana Shay is always a good discussion. Doubt any of her music made the list unfortunately…Good discussion.

I've never been wrong before and I'm not about to start with Tubular Bells.

We've made it almost 2 pages of Tubular Bells discussion and not one mention of Pure Moods? I just assumed that's where everyone knew this from.

Clearly you have been hanging out on the VMP discord.

The greatest compilation ever put to cassette tape…
I got my copy via @Wes C. Attle as a Secret Santa gift. You couldn’t watch cable in the early 90s without seeing the commercial…
