Bottom/ "Aftermath" taken from The Orb's Bicycles & Tricycles (Cooking Vinyl, 2004) Middle/ Brooklyn goth cellists Rasputina quit the forest with The Lost & Found (2nd Edition) (Instinct Records, 2003). It consists of covers of songs by Creedence Clearwater Revival, Pink Floyd, Marilyn Manson, Pat Benatar, The Velvet Underground, and Led Zeppelin, as well as a rendition of Mother Goose's nursery rhyme "This Little Piggy." Top/ Whimsy and eclectic, the Penguin Cafe Orchestra's self-titled second album (E.G. Records, 1981) is widely considered as their critical best. The cover painting was by Emily Young. The PCO was a loose assembly of musicians headed by classically-trained guitarist, composer and arranger Simon Jeffes (Sussex, England, 1949-1997). Its sound does not fit easy categorization, but has elements of exuberant folk music and a minimalist aesthetic occasionally reminiscent of Philip Glass
