Porcupine Tree - Up the Downstair

From the offset you know you are in for a treat from anything produced by Steve Wilson.
This first official PT album (Wilson had been solo until this) is a delight and defies genre with its blues, rock, techno, electronica.
Once you have heard one track, it does not mean you know what to expect from the next.
It hints at the brilliance to come in subsequent offerings.
The vinyl has a superbly exotic bloom to the fat bass lines that the CD just cannot capture, but we've established on other threads the superiority of vinyl over CD, so I won't go into it.
What you do get with the vinyl is an interlude allowing the sweet anticipation of side B.
Treat yourself
Highly Recommended
