Re: Favorite Sonic/Spectrum Songs

I've really enjoyed this thread - dug out my Sonic stuff - and based on the lists here listened to your recomendations - and had a whale of a time!

I love Sonic at that point where he seems to cross between Brian Eno and the Primal Scream come down songs.

Thanks!! :D
