Chill Out

Have loved this cd for years, never tire of its unique charm. Unlike many purchases from the 90s, which are now banished to the never to be played again cd rack in the back of my wardrobe,this has remained in that all too often short zone where you cant get enough of it and want to play it while dressing, cleaning, decorating, cooking, sitting in the garden with wine, etc. its backgroundy but interesting. the cow bells jangle, radio pips peep,news casters ramble, mad preachers from the bronx rave,trains clang, old floyd songs blend with elvis in the ghetto and earth wind &fire!And those throaty shepherds!tried to "win" this on ebay to no avail, til some seller mentioned Amazon and been hooked since. So glad to get a copy Coz my evil ex got my original and its deleted so not in shops or on i tunes.

Ive had this on CD for years but i always wanted this on vinyl i Cudnt resist for the price this vinyl is the best chill-out album ever mixed i'd give this epic piece of vinyl more than 5 stars if i cud i was looking on ebay and the prices are just outrageous i seen a copy on vinyl for £500 (hundred) i seen another or £295 so i am over the moon to have picked up this classic for £49 +£2 p&pcertainly worth every penny Very Happy Indeed 10/10 A+

If by the end of the first track you're wondering when the music is going to start, then you've missed the point entirely. If you find youself doing that, simply read the album title again: "Chill Out" - it's a direct order.This is The Orb on [insert your favourite chillout medicine here]. Listen to it at work, on your headphones, and you'll be as calm as a Hindu cow. Suddenly all of the office politics will melt away into the background.Lots of diverse samples from "The White Room", various BBC sound effects albums, Elvis Presley, "Albatross" by Fleetwood Mac and, startlingly, "Eruption" by Van Halen. Lots of nice synths too. No beats though - that would wake you up out of the beautiful place you'll get too.Headphones back on....

Allegedly recorded in one "live" take in their studio, Trancentral, I reckon this is the best example of ambient house you can get hold of. A beautiful patchwork of sound and music that still sounds amazing some 22 years after it was first released. Cauty's other ambient house album, space (by space), is also worth getting hold of, but this is a corker, and in retrospect, is probably The KLFs finest hour.

FANTASTIC

Great to be able to buy this in the UK as the KLF discontinued this album way back. I think it's an export. Lovely chilling album which influenced the later ambient house of The Orb, Orbital and others.

Revisit the 90’s come down with the KLF, makes me smile.

Found this very interesting as I had missed it first time around. More direct and stronger than similar ambient stuff by the Orb.
