I was gutted to have to leave off some stellar tunes like A Pillow of Winds, The Post War Dream and Paranoid Eyes. I pushed for a top 75 but was outvoted. The way it goes.

I like the fun little tunes on the Piper at the Gates of Dawn a lot
I can hear that Love and Rockets liked it too
especially since they covered one of the tunes

Their early non-album singles are great too. See Emily Play, Apples and Oranges, Point Me At The Sky, Candy and a Current Bun, Julia Dream, Paintbox...all great 60s tunes.

I've never been a huge fan of Young Lust to be honest.
