It seems appropriate to take a moment to mention this album today, since it would have been Mark Hollis' birthday.
Working in the same continuum as later Pink Floyd and then Talk Talk, "Solace" is the debut by a collection of musicians who are primarily known as sidemen. It's quiet and lyrical. Atmospheric and at times ethereal.
I have found that when you are quiet, and let the music talk to you, it's really something special.
