Five options are not enough.
Is anyone else still annoyed by the decision to split Three Minute Warning into separate tracks? It’s not a huge deal but the individual sections aren’t all that discreet so they don’t work at all as individual tracks. I’ve never once thought, “I just want to hear Three Minute Warning Pt. 3” or whatever. And it does mess up the playback on some formats.
I thought Another Dimension would be higher. Probably the most interesting/well-composed song overall on LTE2
As a basic rule, if you hate it, you must solely blame Portnoy. If it's good, then you must downplay MP's contribution to the band as not being important anyway, or claim he's just lying. It's the DTF way.
Paradigm ShiftUniversal MindAcid RainHourglassI have no idea what the others sound like off the top of my head, but those 4 are cool.
Hey dude slow the fuck down so we can finish together at the same time.
SquscRa are the resultaten of sound nog bring propey
Agreed about Another Dimension. Had I thought about my choices longer it probably would have gotten a vote. The guitar solo always reminded me a little bit of the Scarred solo. One of my favorite JP moments.

MP has said that it's the most DT-like song that LTE's done and therefore, part of the reason why it was played in full several times during World Tourbulence. I especially like how it breaks out into that accordion solo - it's like a journey going to another world or at least country.
Not the biggest fan of another dimension because of that bass intro

I don't know how he does it.I know Mike doesn't count Liquid Trio Experiment (because Magna Carta) but does anyone else beside me count it.Chris and Kevin's Bogus Journey, Hawaiian Funk, Jazz Odyssey, Fire Dance....I dig a lot of this one too.

L3E was all him, Tony and Jordan, so while he may want to avoid MC like the plague, I don't think he views L3E any less than he does the LTE albums, aside from the packaging which he had nothing to do. Even the title was MP's idea from way back when. Personally, I'm not a big fan of it, in part because it's missing JP and the improvs just don't resonate with me very much. Same is true of The Stretch and 914 which were both basically L3E as well, since neither has JP.The one thing I'll be curious to see is if a third LTE album happens like it seems to be the case, will we see Chris and Kevin Face the Music?
You're right the vitriol is really for Magna Carta. When I met Tony Levin and Billy Sheehan, they didn't really have nice things to say about Magna Carta either.
