I was commenting on the lack of picture actually.
I have no views on the Gladiator S/T. I only heard it whilst watching the film.

It most certainly has. I heard it playing in a shop in Cambridge a few weeks ago and resisted buying it at the time. But it stayed in my head and eventually could not resist looking it up on Amazon - it was that "Buy with 1 click" feature again. Great music, uplifting!

On first listen, I don't think it's as strong as their earlier CDs. I think it may just be that the ECM production is more polished, which I am not sure best suits them. Will have a better listen tomorrow when I don't have to compete with the TV.

A casual dip into New York Days sounds most promising.
