Save for those great, hypnotic early singles, Wilder's where JC's career really starts for me. Kilimanjaro's not a bad album, but those second-rate Forever Changes horns just get on my nerves these days. Same goes for Echo tracks like Happy Death Men- I think that's the one that inspired the Teardrops to use them, too. Thanks, Mac!


I'd agree that 'Wilder' is where it starts to get really interesting. 'Kilimanjaro' does have some pretty exemplary pop, tho.

Worth noting that it was the other way round according to Julian - the Teardrop started using horns after Balfe had a 'Forever Changes' revelation. In true Balfe style, he subsequently went off to produce the Bunnymen's debut and nicked the idea. I guess he saw it as his own idea but Julian felt like he'd led him there in the first place. Band politics eh!?!

Are you sure? I thought the expanded WILDER contained this one:

>2. Suffocate (Baroque version) is the second studio version.

I just checked and you are correct. So the "baroque" version has never been released on CD? or has it?

The 'original' version is on the remastered Wilder CD.
The baroque version is on the The Greatest Hit CD.

OK thsnks. I don't have that compilation (which I guess I need if it's the one w/"Christ vs. Warhol").

I feel like I'm falling behind: first the FG2 reissue and, as I was ordering that, I discovered KRAUTROCKSAMPLER is back in print -- am I the last to know these things??

I just checked and it's in German LOL! I gotta be a little slower on the trigger I guess; oh well, I'll treat it as an art object. It said "only 3 copies left" and I just clicked "buy" w/out looking very closely.

Nothing more to see here folks!
