      From: PENI@DENI.COM              DJ Taylor, Orwell biographer and all-round busy bee wrote into this week's       Spectator to complain that Beefheart's Trout Mask Replica had been unfairly       slagged off in that magazine's worst sacred cow albums. He said Trout Mask       was one of the greatest records ever made. I like 'The Dust Rolls Forward       and the Dust Rolls Back' a lot but not that much.        My alma mater Exile on Main Street took a slagging too but you either get       that or ya don't and if you don't you ain't got no ass, nor soul.        I liked a description of The Clash's London Calling: 'one half catchy track       and about three hours of grey skiffle.'              ROBBIE              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
