also on a side note, I just got back from london and they have TREX ON TV just out this week.. all of his television appearances.

and yes.. the good vibration box set with all the smile bootlegs are a million times better than the stupid SMILE album..

especially vegetables and wind chimes.

Brian just sounds way too old on the new smile album.. and i feel the mix is really tingy and bright and has no warmth in it at all.

at best its a bland brian solo album..

Although Bang A Gong is almost impossible to top I don't think Electric Warrior is as consistent. The Slider is the better of the two records in my opinion.

Being a foreigner to these shores I'm always a little taken aback by the important place KISS seem to hold in the youths of Yanks my age. Sorry if I went off a little there.

The Stones and The Who and the idea of Slade and Mott being The Animals and The Dave Clark Five is great. But why'd you have to throw KISS in there? They aren't even part of that equation. For a start they're American, and secondly they never sold any records in England. If anything it makes them The Monkees.

Smile was depressing as hell. (Did you really just quote Benjamin? That's like the second Benjamin shoutout I've seen on an mp3 blog in a week.) Also, I've been meaning to tell you that I'm coming down one of these days to steal your dog. Most beautiful beast ever! I’m with you on original context. Smile was depressing as hell.
