Just want to apologise for the comment below, I had had a few beers when I sent it, and I allowed my personal antipathy to the music of Erik Satie to get the better of me.

So does that mean you liked the album covers too, or does your apology for  
drunken grouchiness apply only to Satie?
 
I'm really, really sure that you're not the first guy on the list that has  
made beer fueled comments on this list. In fact I'm positive. I've been 
guilty  in the past and Rick Blechta does it all the time.

The album covers weren't bad, sorry I was rude, I think I might still have been sober at that point as well.

You were probably a little bitter?

That's perfectly okay.

However, I fail to see how anyone can fail to be entranced by Satie, and 
even more puzzled why anyone can be antipathetic to it. I find it 
perhaps the most mesmerising music I have ever heard.

I agree, Mike.
  Also, Satie's music is perfect for the atmosphere of the mellotron flute (McDonald or MK2, maybe even bass flute).

Satie tends to polarise.  I love it but know many who find it tedious  and 
ponderous.  They are wrong in my book and Mike knows I share his  
fascination.  Musical mnimalism can be a hard pill to swallow but Satie  makes it 
easy....for me.  Arvo Part also hits the spot but not Philip Glass  or Arthur 
Pottle.  Especially Pottle, the nicotine swilling, Vodka smoking,  utterly 
confused twat.
