Maybe half-assed for them, but if any other band would have made that album, it would be regarded as their masterpiece. "Hey Bulldog" alone is worth the price of admission. That's just my opinion though. I don't think The Beatles made any bad records. _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

I thought this was common knowledge among her fans. I'm not sure of the details, but it was on a drug charge. If I remember correctly, she started using heroine back when she was a prostitute, before she got her big break as a singer. I'm sure someone here will correct me if I'm wrong. _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

That's just my opinion though. I don't think The Beatles made any bad records. I dunno, Dave, I think Bob may have a point. Yellow Submarine had 13 tracks. 7-12 were by George Martin (who was NOT a Beatle), 13 was an "arrangement" (more new material than old) of the song Yellow Submarine by Martin, and two of the remaining six songs were previously realeased on albums (Yellow Submarine on Revolver, and All You Need is Love on Magical Mystery Tour). Total: Four new tracks, two old songs, and a lot of work by their very talented producer. And of those four new tracks, two were written by George (not that there's anything wrong with that, but the ratio is a bit high compared to the other albums). Now, admitedly, the album has always been in the background, behind Let It Be and Abbey Road, but I think there's a reason for that. And as to the Beatles never making a bad album... well... about half of the stuff from the White Album really could have been removed, leaving a solid single album. (Yeah, I know it's been said before, but it's true!) Making Bad movies is another thing altogether.

Remember that song "I Can't Drive 55"? The only reason I know that was him is I recall my dad's friend bragging that he wrote that song!

Subject: "It's alright... just got back from the doctor." The secret backstage video that appears on the main screen of PF includes Je saying "It's alright... just got back from the doctor." You know, on April 26 '98, I went backstage before the show and met the band. Stu told me Je and Kat were at the doctor. The dressing room looked vaguely similar to Hartford U's Lincoln Theatre that I saw while walking around w/ Stu. Weird. - -PD ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 08 Jul 1999 19:10:23 -0700 From: "rev. bob pigeon" Subject: Re: words from Tom >Sacrilege!

Yeah, but Je didn't say that. Jimbo did. Jim was standing in front of the mirror and said "It's alright, just got back from the doctor". Did anybody else notice that the first time they show somebody warming up with a trumpet in the backstage section, it looks like stacy. (the first shot, not the one with je sitting down nrxt to Jim and Kat) Squirrel Nut Zippers always reminds me of something my father once told me.
