"The Legion of Green Men have managed to make the best ambient record of all time, (my apologies to the orb and f.s.o.l who, although make consistently great albums, haven't managed to pack on disc what The Legion of Green Men did;) with spatial specific. However, if you've already (purchased) spatial specific, which if you haven't you should, this record defines what ambient music was set out to do, and liked it, I would strongly suggest getting Floating in Shallow Water, it is instrumentally as good as the first, however, the vocals might throw you off as they are somehow dated and traceable back to this planet, while the first's vocals always left you floating eons away. Other than that which is purely subjective, as many might like the loungy vocals on a minority of tracks, (somewhat trendy, but sure to wear) I would still buy it again if I had to."
