In the credits (p. 3 of the CD booklet) it says "Orchestral Arrangements by Michael Kaman". Is this Michael Kamen, who toured with Roger Waters and played keyboards on "the final cut"? I wonder what Terry Gilliam is being thanked for. More weird instruments. What is a "bouzouki" and what is a "fujare"? (Also, what are Uilean pipes? I've heard them before on some Mike Oldfield albums.) Does anybody else think that "Cloudbusting" (at about 40 seconds in) slightly resembles Prince's "Raspberry Beret"? The beginning of "Hounds of Love" (when the vocals start) reminds me of some other song, but I can't place it. The drums at the beginning remind me a lot of "Sat in Your Lap". Oh yeah. I like it. Especially "Under Ice", "Waking the Witch" and "Watching You Without Me". Jim Lippard (Lippard at MIT-MULTICS.ARPA)
