U make some good points about why, at their best, they were pretty great. They could go poppy just fine -- but a lotta their louder, simpler, "boogie"-er stuff I can't take, & there R a coupla Xamples of that on this album. But if they coulda kept walkin the line Btween prog weirdness & rockin out, man.... Nice work, as always. -- TADTADhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13853931230081777310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7678680630672675977.post-64041380031845974162009-12-22T10:46:26.348-05:002009-12-22T10:46:26.348-05:00Thanks Steve and sorry about the bad link.
