3) D-c.o.m.p.o.s.e.r.: Julian Cope (1997)

    1. Thanks, Adam. Julian Cope's longer pieces, either solo or with Queen Elizabeth, can sometimes be a challenge even for a dedicated fan. I won't pretend that the full, 31-minute version of Avebury is a regular on my playlists, but I really like how both of these sides flow. It was definitely a staple of my more contemplative commutes to work back in the day.

    1. Thanks, Mike! I was slacking a bit on my Cope quota, hope this has made up for it :-)
