This is not quite as strong as Volume I, but it's still very good. After a rather bland intro track, we are treated to a ten-minute funk jam with lots of wah ("Flying Finger Fury (In the Coop)") which is good, but the fun really starts with the next series of tracks: a dark ambient piece ("Hanged Man's Lament"); a scintillating, speedy head-bobber ("Robot Foot Pursuit"); a 16-minute mellow jam number which is absolutely fantastic, the best track on the disc ("Blue Marbles Moon"); and a quick-change experimental tune ("Droid Factory Conveyor Belt Ambush"). The CD ends with two more solid experimental songs, too. This is the second best disc in the set.
