Not only probably my favorite recording of my favorite music, but also without doubt the most impressive box set on my shelves!

Unlike yourself I struggled to get into this album initially, but its gradually growing on me. I played it in the car last week and it was most enjoyable.

I agree about the impact live. I went to the previous tour which was promoting this album, and the first half of the show was them playing the whole album in track order and it was just simply stunning.

I really enjoyed hearing the complete performance of 'The Incident' at the gig in Hammersmith last year, it worked well as a live piece of music.

Having got into the band through 'Signify' and seeing them touring 'Lightbulb Sun', I got used to a certain sound from them, and so that is how I identify with them.

I know a lot of people probably were introduced to them through 'Deadwing' and 'Fear of a Blank Planet' and so identify with that sound from the band

I just like the lighter period from ten years ago. I don't dislike a heavy 'prog' sound, but for that I would rather listen to Tool or recent King Crimson. Each to their own I suppose.

Jamie said recent not old

I am thinking the The ConstruKction of Light and Power To Believe - the two I do not own. After reading the comments on amazon I might add them to the collection.
