I am after getting into Flook a bit lately and love there last album Haven.
Just wondering if you have a favourite track of theres and why?
If you dont like Flook no need to say so as that sees to take away from the question.
I never look at the tracks individually, they're not tunes to learn so I guess I just let it wash over me like one big symphony. What's your favourite track from Tubular Bells? ... but probably the first 15 minutes of Rubai
I've found "The Cats of Camazen" to be like a musical mobious strip, particularly the "A" part, and am sorta getting the hang of it now. Exasperating at times, but an amazing tune.
As for listening, I have to say I like the way "Calico" opens, with John Joe's bodhran stoking along in particular, and the Eastern European tune that closes out the album.

I love the Asturian Way on Haven. It's a brilliant tune, but they play it in an impossible key, like every other tune on that album...

I would have to say the Natterjack's set off Rubai.
