You crusty old pop tart;-)

''workman-like rock that basically consists of a yobbish sounding Dylan fan hollering over some tired old Stones riffs.'' Is this a bad thing? Only to girly pop tarts swanning around in their bangles, beads n feathers. At the coalface of rock you'll find the real troopers digging deep into the true boogie seam, home of the yobbish Dylan fan & worse!

You know your problem Mr A, you're afraid to love your inner rock, and until you take a firm hard grasp on your hard dark core you'll be left in the corner dancing round your handbag whilst thre rest of us have fun in the big messy rockpit.


I've tried, honestly, Mr Machinery. And it's not that I hate those MTH LP tracks, just that - sadly - I find them very...ordinary.

And I was about to say you're probably right and that I lost my inner rock a long time ago but then I play something like Raw Power and I know something is still there!

And going off at a slight 'rock' tangent...the relentless, throbbing Feed The Greed off the latest Faust album. Have you heard it? An awesome track!
I'd happily dance round my handbag to this one!





Must catch up with my Faust, still to hear Cest Complicated [sic?] never mind the latest, I'll add them to the list, so to answer your question ref Feed The greed, no I've not heard it, the various incarnations of Faust leave me bemused,it seems trhat 2 half fausts =2 good fausts which is a surprise , but the write ups seem to be good for both and You do seem to have reasonably good taste ;-) [your failure to rock tendencies we'll ignore for the time being] so I might just give it a punt

As for Mott, Born Late 58, Pearl n Roy what's not to love, please tell me you don't find 'Waterlow' or 'I Wish I Was Your Mother' ordinary. I'll let you off 'Ready For love' & 'El Camino Real' because although I think they're wonderful I can see why you could pick fault, but everyone loves 'Waterlow' don't they?

I'll leave the final word to the master, much as I can't be arsed with most of his Bobnesses output his existance is justified purely to allow this LP to exist, a finer example of yobbish Dylan fandom would hard to find
