Episode 24 - Legendary Pink Dots (pt2)

LPD, the early days

Here is the second part of my overview, focused on the early era.  Their DIY ethos paired with natural talent and affinity for experimenting was the perfect mix, right out of the gate.  I still remember picking up the Legendary Pink Box when I was 13, based solely on its name.  Something called that just had to be magnificent, right?  I was not disappointed.  The version of "Close Your Eyes, You can be a Space Captain" is still my favorite from them.  I do love their albums, however it was their Chemical Playschool sessions that hooked me forever.
