Ah, I didn't realise we could vote for non-existent CDs. In which case I'd
like to vote for the  "Heroes Of The Astral Bong" box-set, that wonderful
recording of the legendary jam sessions featuring (amongst others) the
Hawks, Can, Jimi Hendrix and J.S.Bach, recorded in quadrophonic audio-
visual sensurround at the Festival At The End Of Time. Bob Calvert's
rendition of 'Purple Haze' is among the more memorably surreal moments,
and the packaging includes a (highly collectible) miniature drug cabinet to
aid enjoyment.

In fact it's almost as good as 'Space Ritual'.
