ช่วงนี้ผมฟังแต่สามชุดหลังของเค้าครับ ต้องฟังนานๆ ซ้ำไปซ้ำมาจะเพราะขึ้นเรื่อยๆ

กะว่าจะฟังให้มันทะลุ ก่อนที่จะขยับไปฟังยุคแรกของเค้าครับ แต่ส่วนใหญ่ แฟนๆ ใน Progarchives ก็ลงความเห็นกันให้ผลงานยุคหลังๆ เป็นสุดยอดของพวกเค้าครับ

งานของ PT ถ้าจะให้ดี ผมว่าต้องแปลและศึกษาเนื้อด้วยครับ ผมพยายามอยู่ ไม่รู้จะไปได้ไกลแค่ไหน
