RHP did some incredible wonderful songs - unfortunately, this one is not among those.

6:42 of torture.  When he got to the lyric of "your blood red eyes", I knew I would have to reach through the radio and throttle him to within an inch of his narcoleptic life.  Hell would be this song played over and over.

I'm not comparing this to anything else - just surfing the wave. And wow, what a great groove... I couldn't tell you what slipstream I'm on, but it's pretty good, so I think I'll just stay on it.... {#Sunny}

Red House Painters following Nick Drake seems to be one of the the saddest sets I've ever heard.  Why not finish it up with "Season in the Sun?"  ;)

Should by followed by David Gilmour's The Narrow Way from Pink Floyd's Ummagumma.

Late at work, been staring at the screen all day, eyes swimming, relying on RP to keep me awake for these last bits of coding, and this number comes on. I feel sleepy, so sleepy, my eyelids are drooping, my vital functions slowing down, my head sagging, Morpheus awaits me with open arms, but I hit the mute just in time before the overwhelming soporiphicness (is there such a word?) puts me into a deep slumber. Truly this is the very definition of "ho-hum". A solid 3 from the Nottingham jury.

Very pretty song, until near the end and that screeching electric guitar came in.

Excellent tuning and playing. If I tried to do this, it would be all plunky and wonky toned. This is extremely difficult to make sound good. He makes it sound so easy.

C'mon, let's get a bit more creative than Iron Maiden here. How about a good thumping Tom Waits number from after he lost his voice. Now that might tempt Bill G., though I myself am happy to follow this quiet little grove a while longer.

The lamest, boring singing of Nick Drake mixed with the worst impulses of Sigur Ros - absolutely horrible.

Red House Painters - Trailways
Nick Drake - Clothes Of Sand
Enya - Orinoco Flow

Does this happen frequently? I love Red House Painters, but the lullaby set is killin' my energy levels. If only I still got to take naps at lunchtime...

Ditto, on all counts :)

I just recently bought 3 RHP CDs, I've only made my way through one of them... I just get lost in his voice.

This is a nice piece. I'm glad I heard it in the late night scenario though after a busy day.

Edit-Sept 8, hearing it again, still think it is beautiful.

I've liked the Red House Painters since first hearing a track in the movie Vanilla Sky. Melancholy yet soothing

I've always assumed that the People Eater was himself purple, because if he limited himself to only purple people he'd have starved to death in short order.

Fits for me only in that it's the first time on RP I've rated consecutive songs as 1.

very nice segue from Nick Drake's "Clothes of Sand"....RHP definitely show his influence in this one. Wonderful set...keep it up!
