i personally think its excellent. yes there are a couple of not so good tracks, but it is an emotional journey of the senses. It takes you from relaxation to tension, from happiness to sadness. A truely classic collection of tracks.

I love it, but it's not the sort of CD I listen to very often. Takes the right sort of mood, and a few listens...

SAWII fucking is the best album RDJ put out. SO Very different from all of his stuff. It is timeless! It is brilliant! Every track on that album makes me want to go to sleep and just dream the days away!
If I were to die and I was able to choose to bring with me, I would choose my cd player & my SAWII!

Reflex, you love SAW2?
I think it was one of the many Reflex clones that said he found SAW2 to be really fucking boring... but I also saw you praise it a few times... at least it cleared up now.
Thank god we don't have to deal with that crap anymore. Someone even thought I was you, because of my... erm... many posts... :-)

I used to think SAW 85-92 was better... what was I fucking thinking? SAW2 is on another level...
You're right, I'm Reflex. I'm also The_Funkmaster... notice how we both use triple periods a lot...
Like we (well, ME, since I'm him) are trailing off... or we can't finish our thoughts...

Nope. Gotta be honest, I can't stand ambient stuff. It's alright in it's purpose but personally I stopped taking Ecstacy and acid in a big way a few years ago (I only dabble now) and that is the sort of head state I need to be in to listen to that genre of music. Generally I like harder stuff, which suits my personality - I'm hot tempered and easily pissed off. When I want to chill out I put on some classic rock stuff like Down

Ambient stuff has a large purpose, it "fills" a room better than any music out there.

it's great for background. You've got so many moments in this record where you just think: "Whoa. That's deep!!"
I had an incident when I was listening to the album before I went to bed and the music just flew into the atmosphere where I just thought: "was there something moving, or is it just the music?"

it's a shame that they omitted "Stone in Focus" for the CD release though. It's one of the best.

And they omitted Hankie, which is also great.

that's the fourth on CD1, right?
I own the Rough Trade release, so Hankie is on this one :-)
I made a custom cd cover (the original with track titles) for SAW2 about 1 year ago.
If you also would like to use it, get it here (about 260 KB).
