Hmm, you're abolutely right there.  I loved all of the early (pre-Anam)
stuff.  But IMO Clannad really stuffed up with Anam.  They abandoned the
kind of music they make really well and degenerated into a kind of soft,
jazzy saxophony kind of crap for no particular reason at all.

I ended up using the Anam CD as a frisbee, cos I'd bought it w/o
hesistation (or listening to it first) since I liked the other stuff so much. 
<sigh> another good group bites the dust.

Only IMHO dudes/dudettes, so don't flame me!
