    Every time you play that album now will nostalgically transport you back to Oz.


    I know it mate. As it was my last full day in Australia today, I decided to have a reflective afternoon in the sun, so I just sat down on the grass and played this on my iPod. In fact, I started to feel really sad, but in a good way. Kind of like: it's so depressing to be leaving all the good times - but they were GOOD times. Then you just smile and enjoy.


    I know the feeling...kinda sweet nostalgic depression, the one that doesn't bother you but makes you think about stuff you've been through, experiences and people that mean a lot to you, makes you wander down the memory lanes... smile A couple of years back or so, i'd found myself doing that all the time smile
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.

    Lee, seeing as you enjoy that album so much you may really like this one too....


    NP : STILL LIFE ( TALKING ) - Pat Metheny Group



    This album has nostalgic value to me, it takes me back to my travels on Euro-rail and places like Norway and Portugal and particularly Paris where I finally said goodbye to good friends, the track Last Train Home says it all for me, a deeply evocative track with a bitter sweetness that never fail's to make me smile but also makes me feel sad and yearn for great times that can never be repeated.

    EDIT : - It's been too bloody long since I've played this excellent album, there's not a bad track on here and the percussion in the track Third Wind is quite simply AWESOME! cool

    This should be a relatively inexpensive process for you. I've seen sets of the four symphonies in the $10 range.

    I think as you listen to this final work Tchaikovsky seemed to know that he was going to die. Listen to the last movement and how it ends in nothingness.
