Overrated: Rudebox...............Robbie Williams




Underrated: Home Thoughts From Abroad ..........Clifford T. Ward Cool
Nice to be able to go back to trust and friendship!!!!!!!!!

It's a mixed up sensation this being alive
Oh! it wears a man down into the ground
It's the strangest elation
I can't describe it
Oh it leaves a man weary
It makes a man frown.
.............................Chris Simpson ( "Mixed Up Sensations" 1975 Martin's Cafe )

CH this is sacrilge. DSOTM was in the charts for over 700 weeks!!!! Agree about TFC though - think it's absolutely brilliant. Some very clever writing on that album, both musically and lyrically. By the way, Uncle Neil himself has said that 'Harvest' was his finest hour.

sorry Jerome, but i dont see what all the hoopla is with DSOTM,its a good album but i just dont think its worth all the praise it gets... i prefer The Wall, The Final Cut and Division Bell....i'll let you know what i think of WYWH when it arrives.

Harvest...well i have all of NY's albums(inc. Springfields,CSNY, and Stills Young Band) except "time fades away", which is yet to be released on cd, and near impossible to find on vinyl,....i dunno, i just think Harvest Moon,After The Goldrush,Everybody Knows..., and Prairie Wind
contain superior songs
