It's taken a while (6 discs, after all), on alternate rotation with 'Marvellous Realms' and 'Mixed Up Kid', but deeper appreciation and enjoyment of these relatively recent BN albums really "kicking in" (not really the right metaphor) of late. Some of Bill's albums you have to live with and let permeate - then the rewards appear, after your subconscious (or whatever) shows you what was always there - most notably, emotionally resonant world-class song-writing throughout!
In some ways, this seems like a kind of golden age of artistic output - you can hear it in Bill's work, and see it in several artists in other fields (eg film, even some TV) - the off-the-scale quality and focus/attention to detail, etc - and we probably shouldn't take it for granted...
Some more fan appreciation:
