    All.
    If you have sensory depravation, whereby all that can function is your ears, you will hear more clearly, and also have less distractions

    Try Janis Ian´s "BETWEEN THE LINES". It´s an excellent album no matter what the surroundings are, but it grows in the dark, to become even more intimate, even more naked... and warm. A truly great album.

    Sally Oldfield´s "STRANGE DAY IN BERLIN" is colder, very precise, but it´s a great, sombre listen in the dark. Can´t wait for the lights to fade...

    I'm not sure what it called, I can't read what it says on the cover, but I'm pretty sure it's the best.

    So is Axis. The imagery in the lyrics runs like a movie for the mind! .....and so Castles made of Sand......

    Custer LaRue - "Amazing Grace". Last song on Amazing Grace, Spiritual Folk Songs of Early America by Custer Larue and The Baltimore Consort. Dorian Recordings. The whole disc is great but if this version of Amazing Grace doesn't bring a tear to your eye (no one will know cause it's dark) then you ain't got no soul. It's on youtube but won't be the same as on your nice stereo in the dark.
