P.1 00:00 P.2 25:30 Entire album is highly enjoyable imo.... I like all of it but particularly love the beginning of P.2 @ 25:30 ...To me absolutely extraordinary The music press wrote a lot about it when record was released in 1973 as it was deemed very original and innovative....And different from the rest ( for that time ) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tubular_Bells

Composed by George Harrison-RIP....He was 24 at the time Incredibly beautiful & insightful imho..... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Beatles We were talking, about the space between us all And the people, who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion Never glimpse the truth, then it's far too late when they pass away We were talking, about the love we all could share When we find it, to try our best to hold it there, with our love With our love we could save the world, if they only knew Try to realize it's all within yourself, no-one else can make you change And to see you're really only very small And life flows on within you and without you We were talking, about the love that's gone so cold And the people who gain the world and lose their soul They don't know, they can't see, are you one of them? When you've seen beyond yourself Then you may find peace of mind is waiting there And the time will come when you see we're all one And life flows on within you and without you "Within You Without You" We're not trying to outwit the public. The whole idea is to try a little bit to lead people into different tastes.[163] – George Harrison, 1967 Harrison wrote the Hindustani classical music-inspired "Within You Without You" after the decision was made to discard "Only a Northern Song".[164] The lyrics reflect Harrison's immersion in the teachings of the Hindu Vedas while its musical form and Indian instrumentation, such as sitar, tabla, dilrubas and tamburas, recall the Hindu devotional tradition known as bhajan.[165] Harrison recorded the song with London-based Indian musicians from the Asian Music Circle; none of the other Beatles participated in the recording.[166] The track features a tempo rubato that is without precedent in the Beatles' catalogue.[167 ] The pitch is derived from the eastern Khamaj scale, which is akin to the Mixolydian mode in the West.[168] MacDonald regards the song as "the most distant departure from the staple Beatles sound in their discography", and a work that represents the "conscience" of the LP through the lyrics' rejection of Western materialism.[169] Womack calls it "quite arguably, the album's ethical soul" as a concise reflection of the Beatles' and the counterculture's perspective during the Summer of Love era.[167] The track ends with a burst of laughter that some listeners interpret as a mockery of the song, but Harrison explained: "It's a release after five minutes of sad music ... You were supposed to hear the audience anyway, as they listen to Sergeant Pepper's Show. That was the style of the album."[170][nb 17] Martin used the moment of levity as a segue for what he describes as the album's "jokey track" – "When I'm Sixty-Four".[172]

Love his (Tony Hill) voice even though ( or maybe that's why I do) I deem it somehow sinister...... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Tide_(band) Probably one of the most underrated bands ever... Peculiar (in the least) lyrics.......Excerpt: ........"Born from the carnage and cast into darkness / Hailed are the priests of dualities / Fragrant the blossom and deadly the thorn / Some born from sorrow and some from scorn / Slowly we walked to the sound of the sunlight / Down to the valley as morning grew / Show me your words I was turning to say / When came the sting to my tasteless game".........
