I would have listened to it plenty of times before when giving TUF a full run through but must have not paid it proper attention or maybe it was just an age thing, I don’t know, but it was 10 years ago where I finally started to really like the track it is as you say a gem. I think it was around the same time I started to love Heartland as well, again my uncle is to thank for that one.
    I've always loved Heartland, it's always been a Top3 from R&H since I can remember (and I've been listening to R&H for literally longer than I can remember!), but I'm glad your uncle set you on the right path

    Funny, I have been having an itch to pick up a copy of R&H on vinyl recently.

    I still can't believe I posted this 10 years ago. It's funny how tastes evolve through time. Promenade is a GEM and if I could turn back in time I'd kick my2009self in the face for writing this


    One day you'll be making a similar statement about "One Step Closer."
  4. Do it! Still my fav vinyl of the whole bunch. There's something about the double gatefold and the b&w photos...
  5. Hahaha, it's been 15 years already since it was released, and my opinion on it hasn't changed. I don't foresee it changing anytime soon

    ... but Promenade (have always loved that tune) was released 35 years ago!

    There's still time for you and OSC. Let's just hope your story isn't the same as Bono's.

    Haha alright, let's give OSC 20 more years. My dad is in good health and only 48 years old so let's cross fingers
  8. Promenade does not add anything for me, I prefer Love comes tumbling down as a track on TUF.
  9. LOVE this track. It's just sublime.

    That last statement is true across many albums.
  12. I wish they’d play this one, it deserves some attention!!
