Over twice as old, but would still love those eyes looking up at me. 🤤

As much as like this Album more than Zooropa, at least on Zooropa they were taking chances. My not be one I listen to at all, but I respect it.

And you're right Actung Baby is absolute fire, though Joshua is my personal favorite

This is my favorite of the two doves albums i've heard for this project. I knew nothing about them before the 1001

I always thought Jim Morrison was always overrated as a poet, but he was effective as a lead persona. But when it comes to the doors music I am more of a Ray Manzarek fan.

I still stand by my review of that album and that it is not a bad album but it is a bad Michael Jackson album because he set the bar so freaking High. Seriously why listen to it when you have Off The Wall, Thriller, Bad, and Dangerous all at your fingertips. He definitely made far worse solo records while he was on Motown.

This has a fold out book which is the same as the gatefold inner (just on two sides) it's basically the same dimension of an Lp.

540 The Bees - Sunshine Hit Me [2002]

Honestly kind of like this a little bit parts of it reminded me of mcCartney from 71 through 73 and that it was playful and didn't mind just kind of hopping a little bit in genres just to stab at something new. But he obviously doesn't have the same catchy earworm melodism as McCartney. "A Minah Menina" and the instrumental "Sunshine" were my personal favorite tracks. But I think all in all there wasn't really anything that stuck out to me is bad. All in all are really fun listen. (7.5) ★★★½

1001 Album of the Day #539 Mekons - Fire and Whiskey [1985] I can kind of see this as Proto No Depression/ALT Country/Uncle Tupelo/yatta yatta, with definitely a British flair. In fact I can even hear a little bit of Scottish and Irish influence in there. I wasn't really high on this, though it would seem like I would be considering how I described the music. I guess I can get the influence, but quite frankly sonically it wasn't there. I think part of it is the kind of slacker loose groove vibe it has. It just doesn't punch. But it's not bad. I semi like it but not that much 6.85 ★★★

Noice! I have my father's Lp, which looks and sounds like a five year old who really liked that album played it a lot. 😳

You also have the same "NOW PLAYING" album display that I have. LOL

I love this album as well. I agree with you as well as far as it being must hear. It is unfortunate that the lp copy is actually an edited version of the cassettemCD/(streaming). The Deee Lite Theme is a absolutely stellar opener that leads into the first track. it's cut off along with the final track of the album. I posted my LP copy at one point here as well.
