I wish Richard would stop being so hard on Henry the Human Fly. Those of us who did buy it (I think in my case a year or so after it came out) had no trouble falling in love with it. There's something to his criticism of his vocal mastery back then, but not that much, and the songs are beautiful. I played that album over and over. (But then I also love First Light, prefer Bloody Noses and Serpent's Tears to Ship to Shore, and think that a lot of the best stuff from Electric and Still are on the bonus records. Etc! Keep putting out bonus stuff for minority tastes, Richard.)
Ah, yes, pick on. Three fourths of this worlds worth is the works of the good Mr.Thompson. I'll explain later.
A great early Christmas present - thanks so much Derek. Sipping Baileys watching all these brilliant uploads!
