Ananta - Night And Daydream

Found the following review on the net and thought I would include it here simply because of how he acquired it. I swear I got my copy under exactly the same circumstances except for Manchester read Edinburgh
I don't agree with his overall rating of the album (I have much worse in my collection!!) although at the time I did think it quit appalling and even now I would never include it in a list of my favourite albums
nevertheless it has grown on me over the years and is well worth a listen

It was also released in some markets as " Wheels of Time"














This album is without equal in the whole of my collection. It is quite simply appalling and an embarrassment which, when you consider some of the other
trash I've bought, is really saying something, but at least there is a story behind it.

Walking through Manchester town centre one Saturday morning clutching an armful of recently purchased albums, totally oblivious to everything going on around me, I'm suddenly accosted by a bloke dressed in a sheet." Would you like to buy one of these, sir?", he said thrusting this album under my nose. "Do you like any of these singers?", he said, pointing out the names of Santana, Dylan, Harrison, Diamond, Wonder and Marley on the cover. Well, I admitted that I did and so sealed my fate. For what seemed the next hour, I was appealed to, exhorted with, pleaded with to buy one of these things and, after beating him down from some ridiculous price, I added it to my others. It was only when playing it that I realised he should have paid me. Ananta are basically a group of very sad people spouting crack-pot religious ideas and all those artists named on the cover simply support those ideals and have never been within a million miles of this thing. So, what do I think of the music? Well you can tell by the amount of space left to review it.
It's just aaaaaaaaahhh!!
