I have to say, whilst I'm the only person that thinks there is a strong case for it being Waits' best, you underrated pretty much everything on Alice. I think had it come out when it was recorded in 1992 it would have been hailed as one of his best, actually. It's so complete. Watch her disappear and Reeperbahn in particular are sheer greatness. Bone Machine is overlong. Alice isn't, and it's more varied as well.

Devo - The Essentials

 

1. Jocko Homo 8

2. Mongoloid 7

3. Come Back Jonee 7

4. (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction 10 Great cover. Completely Devo-ized.

5. Secret Agent Man 7 But only because Satisfaction overshadows it so much.

6. Smart Patrol/Mr. DNA 10 Devo-tastic!

7. Freedom of Choice 8

8. Whip It 8

9. Girl U Want 8

10. Jerkin' Back 'N' Forth 7

11. Working In the Coal Mine 7 Too standard a cover from Devo, in my opinion.

12. Peek-A-Boo! 8

 

Eh, I might have been too generous with some of those, but I like the album, and I like Devo. Because they are Spud Boys. Yay for them!

I won't argue with you about your basic point, but really, I didn't underrate "I'm Still Here" at all. It would've got a 10 had it not been so short.

 

And why not Devo:

Hampton Grease Band - Music to Eat (1971)

 

Imagine a slightly proggier/Southern Zappa (if you're capable) crossed with an even more deranged Captain Beefheart. They only released this one album, which I will be playing in its entirety on my show this Sunday, from 8:30-10:00pm EST (it's a double disc set, too, so I have to start earlier).

Very solid album, although I was trying my best to be unbiased. Cinnamon Girl stands out as the best track, but Musicology is a great single and I'm fond of the Marrying Kind/Man In Ur Life combination. Dear Mr. Man reminds me of an up-to-date Sign O' The Times, except not as good.

Haha. How'd you get kicked off?

Posted

Well, I wandered on at about 2:30am, and I don't dress very hardcore (Black suit, white shoes and shocking pink tie). Dressed better than that fat fuck, though. I was wasted, so I just sort of wandered up the stairs after talkin to that chick outside, and he was like 'Who's this guy? I'm fucking fat blaaah' so I was like 'Ok I'm gonna go now' But what I was THINKING is that he was fat. Heh, 0wned.
