It's a fun exercise, anyway. It first came to mind because Peter Buck of R.E.M., in the liner notes to their recent best-of album, invited fans to send in suggestions for a re-release of 'Out of Time' that removes 'Shiny Happy People' (and maybe something else? I can't remember offhand), and adds 'Fretless' and 'It's a Free World Baby'. So here's my suggestion for a re-release of LE ... Take to the Sky Crucify Girl Mary Little Earthquakes Me and a Gun Silent All These Years Precious Things Winter Flying Dutchman Happy Phantom China Mother Sugar Upside Down Here. In My Head Tear in Your Hand Not a Conclusion (Ode to the Banana King, part one) Single #1: Silent All These Years Smells Like Teen Spirit Thank You Angie Single #2: China Song for Eric Sweet Dreams Leather I didn't bother to add up the minutes, so my CD might be too long. In that case, remove 'Precious Things' and add it to the 'China' single. I chose to discard 'Thoughts', 'The Pool', and 'Humpty Dumpty'. /nm ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V9 #42 ************************************
