Prog looks at how the album made the band a global phenomenon, with exclusive interviews Peter Baumann; Steven Wilson (who remixed the original album), ambient pioneer Steve Roach and more. 

 

Elsewhere, there are interviews with Bill Nelson, Big Big Train, The Pineapple Thief, Chester Thompson and Stackridge, and live reviews of Francis Dunnery's It Bites, Spock's Beard and Tim Bowness.
