Desert Scores is a brilliant CD. I haven't given Gigantic Days near as many listens, but that doesn't mean it is lacking in any way. I think I prefer Desert Scores just because it is alot more upbeat. Everything I have bought by Ian O'Brien is top notch!!! When Claude Young was out in LA, he said that he and Ian were considering doing a label together. He said it would be more musical...kind of like classic Black Dog. That sounds awesome!! --- marsel <xxxxxx@xxxxx.xxxxx.xx> wrote: > At 11-10-99 +0200 13:41 , you wrote: > >Oooh, I'm just cruising off to Planet Groove here, > listening to Ian > >O'Brien's "Gigantic Days" on repeat.
