In the pub on Friday night we had a - really quite long - discussion about this album, which I paid good money for at age 14 (on audiocassette). I think it is probably the worst record I've ever bought, though I admit I haven't listened to it in almost 20 years.

What's yours?

oh yes, total head scratcher that one. I actually own ALL THREE David Holmes solo alBUMs. Never was the phrase "Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it" so apposite ;)

A couple of the choons on the Free Association one weren't too bad. The too-stiff cardboard cover annoyed me though.

The strange thing is, Holmes has a pretty good idea what makes a good record. His DJ mixes in the late 90s and early 00s were awesome, as are the non-Holmes elements of his soundtrack CDs.

I've never heard the first one but 'Minus 61 In Detroit' is AMAZING and the Sarah Cracknell track seemed alright.
