Comment:

Back to reformatting! Well, I got pretty heavily into progressive-rock epic territory on Disc #1, with ELP's "Tarkus" and King Crimson's "Starless" - as well as the Doors' "When The Music's Over" closing out the set. Interestingly enough, we start out fairly conventionally with five classic-rock radio standards, which is then followed by a BOC's "In Thee" (a pretty love song written by keyboardist Allen Lanier for his ex-girlfrien-d, punk priestess Patti Smith). Regarding Disc #2: Just for the record, I must confess that the version of Pink Floyd's "Echoes" which kicks things off here is the edit from the 2-CD "Echoes" compilation, not the full-length original from 1971's "Meddle" album. While that may possibly be offensive from a purist standpoint, in my humble opinion it's actually a minor improvement. Also, has anybody seen the 1980 movie "Times Square"? Well, the Manics number from 1992 is a cover of a song from its soundtrack called "Damn Dog," at one point performed in a club by one of the ch-aracters in the movie with her band! Also, the Ramones' "I Wanna Be Sedated" is on the soundtrack of the same film, so there must have been some stream-of-consciousness thing going on with me there! And the set closes out with a cover of Joni Mitchell's "Fiddle And The Drum," sung by APC's Maynard James Keenan in multi-tracked acapella.
