Notable Quotes

❝ It has been over 35 years since this "Above the fruited plain" was released, an Ep composed of five gems, orphaned both of Philip Glass's production and of Tommy Robertson's significant contribution and violin, but still listening to that diamond of "Indian Song" it seems to me I can still hear the best Mogwai, from that ghostly sound and that wordless voice of Madame Oblasney.
