Yes - Relayer

In about 1985, I struck up a friendship with the bloke who worked in the wholefood shop where I'd go to buy my vegeburgers and whatnot. He was the first crustie I'd ever met.

We ended up swapping compilation tapes, (my introduction to Cardiacs, Zappa, Beefheart) and one of them contained Sound Chaser from this LP. It's a totally bonkers tune.

I'd been indoctrinated by punk at an influential age to think all prog was shit. So powerful was this programming, that I still hold a little shame for loving a bit of prog - the love that dare not speak its name.
