Album Review
The soundtrack to a VHS cassette of Christine Alicino's "video paintings" (which can be viewed properly only when the monitor is stood on its side), Thursday Afternoon is an hour-long, uninterrupted ambient piece created in Eno's "holographic" compositional style, in which even the most brief snippet of music is representative of the performance as a whole.

Looking for the Perfect Gift for expectant parents?

I've bought a copy of this CD for at least a dozen couples and implored them to play it for their newborns at bedtime. The "thank you's" I get are in the hundreds. Essential music for harried moms and dads, who often leave it in "repeat" mode. Those little babies sleep well at ANY time of day when you put this on.
My daughter heard this basically every night until she turned 10 and a half. (She's 19 now and a calm, stellar kid.)
Even I never got tired of hearing this voyage into glittering ambience.
Great functional music, but that price is a bummer. Seek out the CD!
Interesting
by Yogi SydBuy it from Amazon.com. It's cheaper but worth a listen.
One of the best within the genre
by Blues-Jazz-Rock-BlurWithin the genre of Ambient music (generally) and long playing tunes (specifically), this one is tops. The first time I heard it was on Hearts of Space....and I fell asleep during the program. Turn out the lights, light a few candles, relax and be transported into another dimension, another space, another time.
