Sigh.
Such a waste of promising potential.
well, that's billy cornball's fault...i've never heard the record, but i know that at least one of the engineers is good (and i am not saying that due to a bias of any kind--it's scientifically true).
speaking of that moron, corgan...i've got machina/the machines of god sitting around in a box at the top of the closet...on vinyl, for chrissakes, because the pretty pictures were bigger.
also, i own sentimental journey by boots randolph.
and something by blue oyster cult, which i've only listened to once--i don't even know what it's called. "tyranny and transmutation"? "tyrannical mutation"? something along those lines, but i really have no idea. my obvious apathy aside, i could get rid of it, but i think i've even forgotten that i've owned it until now...
into the gap by the thompson twins...god, arista really skimped on those guys. even to the untrained ear, it's obvious by production alone that "hold me now" was the "hit" of the record. anyway, this was my first favourite record, from when it was released. and then mtv first appeared, and i recall one day how mum called me into the living-room, because they had some new video on...
this thread really doesn't even begin to scratch the surface. you'll see what i mean...
mysterious regards,
jet.
