It's been my 'album of the year' since it was released and I'll be surprised if anything else shifts it into second place.
I wish there was a bit more music with a similar level of passion around.

Ray, it's rare in so much as it makes you take in the whole album in one go, almost a throwback. A really well thought out and crafted record with a mix-up of styles - in short, as peridot says, the record of the year.

Just bumping this one to highlight the fact that earlier this month an 81-track 6-CD collecton of Beta Band material was released under the title of 'The Regal Years (1997-2004)'.
It's available for a ridiculously cheap price so go and buy it.

I do however find myself returning to it more often than I might have expected - it's certainly an interesting production.
