Back from my holidays and happy to find that things are back to normal in this forum. I wonder if anyone has a copy of "reflected dream" that doesn't have a jump in the middle. I've compared the one here with an older download and it seems that this is pretty much the same with the crackle removed. Unfortunately there seems to be a small bit missing somewhere in the middle of the track as the guitar and lyrics set in to abruptly...or did they just do it like this?

All those early Essence CD's are available and at a good price. I CANNOT RECOMMEND THESE HIGHLY ENOUGH - THEY ARE ALL MASTERPIECES. As usual, CD Universe has them

Yea I have the Essence CD`s,but i didnt know about Sad Lovers & Giants. I had seen the LPs back in the day but I never gave them a shot.I just found out they where label mates (midnight music) with the Essence.
I got "Epic Garden Music" through soulseek as the music is out of print. Man what a great sound,kinda a Chameleons-ish sound.

Thanks for the post and introducing me to SaD Lovers and Giants

SL&G were also on Midnight Music. All their works are true gems. They had numerous CD's and all are fabulous. If you like Epic Garden Music, then you'll love all their others.

They pop up often on ebay, but get kind of pricey. I've somehow managed to scoop all of them over the years.

P.S: I'd concentrate on the first 2 albums and Mirror Test.
