I hope whoever is writing about Richard & Linda Thompson isn't writing about SHOOT OUT THE LIGHTS, an album I've always thought was overrated.

You wouldn't have to veil the autobiography if you didn't want to. Colin Meloy's LET IT BE focuses mostly on, I think, the true story of a boy growing up in rural Montana. At least two authors turned in outright fiction, though: John Niven with MUSIC FROM BIG PINK, and Joe Pernice's MEAT IS MURDER. Yes, and MUSIC FROM BIG PINK just got optioned, Andy "the coach office I had and could not let them go and also of thegood Babara was very glad to see me and the Ah amiable indeed he is most certainI construed this remark into an indication my desire was to apply myself to some for instance and see that He is very like Son said" - --at the bottom from some spam from "Mr. Ron Jeremy," promising to increase my penis size ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 21 Jan 2007 16:35:09 -0800 (PST) From: zoom@muppetlabs.com Subject: Re: [loud-fans] 33 1/3 needs fresh bleeding vinyl, or, write about music, lose your marbles > Well, looking at that list, I'm left with KIKO, either IBC or DFD, or TALES FROM TOPOGRAPHIC OCEANS. I thought seriously about GOING FOR THE ONE, after the albino Yes fan next door called "Awaken" her fave track by the band. Blast that "one person, one pitch" stricture. I sat fulminating over at least ten. > I hope whoever is writing about Richard & Linda Thompson isn't writing about SHOOT OUT THE LIGHTS, an album I've always thought was > overrated. That's the one. Someone named Hayden Childs has it. Overrated? Whyever for? I do remember my sour shock at checking outHAND OF KINDNESS (from the same library system that provided LIGHTS), and finding joke rock over seven of its nine tracks. But we'll always have "Devonside," Andy "One has always known that if you wanted to be in the American mainstream, you weren't going to tell your most extreme personal truth; you wanted to tell a story that was true for a large number of people, but you wanted that story to be in line with what you knew personally, which is a good definition of how a mainstream artist used to work." - --George W.S.
