That's a good buy for those. The first three are killer albums. I thought he dropped off pretty substantially after Squeezing Out Sparks, but some of my friends prefer The Up Escalator. Either way, lots of great music in this set.

The Up Escalator got a lot of airplay on WNEW FM in New York when it came out..........to the point where I thought "Stupefaction" was his most famous song.
