And a 1, and a 2, and a 3


Well I must say that Zireeka is an interesting album. I think the idea of it is cooler than the sounds, don't get me wrong it is solid. The only thing is you need to listen to all 4 cd's at once in unison. This is no small feat, how many of you have 4 players kicking around?
So I downloaded disc 1 and used Apple tunes, then put in disc 2 and used Windows Media. Then I put a disc in the home stereo, all I need to do is bring up the other stereo and I will have 4 discs at once. So no I have not had the full Zaireeka experience. When you start the discs the all go track 1, then timed out so you hear 1, 2 , 3, 4. This is cool if you have the players on different sides of the room. I found the toughest part is getting the volume right, some parts play loud then really quiet, so setting the volume is a challenge.
The liner notes say you can listen to each disc on it's own, this is fine and all. The only thing is, if you know there is more to a song so it is like eating a BLT without the LT.
Ya and that is the Flaming Lips.
