Listen to Jim!
Topographic Oceans is a masterpiece, in my opinion.
It's something (like water) to immerse yourself in (pardon the pun).
 
Sorry but it can'thelp to be introduced to the piece so many years after it's release.
Times and tastes have changed, but Close to the Edge and Tales are still fresh to my ears and many live experiences with both albums refreshes the feelings everytime.
 
My 2 cents worth,
 
Tony

Caffeine will not help in the attempt to enjoy Topographic Oceans. It will only frustrate you. Try the opposite end of the narcotic spectrum- barbiturates.

It doesn't matter if we are talking about the music, album cover art, lyrics or mullets. I can say that the Tarkus album cover art was complete crap. Someone else can say it was the best album cover ever. It would be awfully boring if everyone agreed on everything.

Speaking of boring... Topographic Oceans - I've tried many times to get into that album. I will try again, after a few Red Bulls.
