In the past I've compared doing this show to my years as a teen when I would make a trip to the record store, come home, and invite friends over to listen to my new albums. Today's show is very similar, as all of this music arrived in my mailbox about an hour before showtime. So come on over and check out "Three Seats Behind A Triangle" from Poland's Osada Vida; "Engines Of Creation" from Galleon of Sweden; Alabama's Ferris Mudd and their self-titled debut; Tangerine Dream's tribute to Syd Barrett, "Madcap's Flaming Duty"; and "Reflection" from Panopticum of Belgium.
