Yes. Because he was so damn over-the-top that you had to laugh, even while you ducked and cowered.

My list begins thusly: Sid Vicious Peter Laughner Ian Curtis Darby Crash G.G. Allin (although his was of a comedic variety)

And, someday I'm gonna get my turntable fixed and start buying LPs again, too! (I don't even own an iPod)

That was the first one that disappointed me. Although "The Right Time" is a great song.

Nick Lowe - The Convincer Barry Adamson - As Above, So Below Richard Davies - There's Never Been a Crowd Like This Peter Laughner - Take the Guitar Player For a Ride Steve Ison - The Stars Are Never Really Distant

Guided By Voices - Alien Lanes Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea

So. Central Rain Fall On Me Pilgramage 7 Chinese Brothers Wolves, Lower Texarcana

and....?

Anything on I.R.S, really. That is, except Document, which is good, but certainly not great. And not the best place for a neophyte to get their feet wet. Hell, I'd even recommend Dead Letter Office before Document.

I just like 'em. Mars Needs Guitars is kicking my ass right now. I forget how much I love this record, and don't listen to it enough. Hello old friend.

Thanks for listening. Thanks for the feedback! It was very helpful. I'll be taking the song down later today, if you wanted to listen and didn't have a chance to, or if you just want to hear it once more. I'll put it back up when the album comes out.

I'm in the process of mixing a song that has some pedal steel. Love that sound. As to OTHER favorites: Anything by Hank Williams, Sr. "Teach Your Children" - CSNY (pedal steel by Jerry Garcia) and other stuff...

I've done it a few times, myself and it's actually a lot of fun. I'm sorry to hear about your mom. I have MS, myself (diagnosed in 1995) and am, thankfully doing well. Good luck with the walk. I would sponsor you, if I weren't already sponsoring others. Oh, and thank you.

Thanks! I thought about doing a Devo take on the song, but it was coming out forced. Then, this came out so well... I appreciated the feedback and the compliments. You guys rule.
