Sinister: In my cell - WELL, I LOVED YOU

[P F]

Ally96 was brief. But better that than rien.

Today I was listening to Neil Young and Crazy Horse's
LP RAGGED GLORY. Some listee or other gave it to me, I
think, at a million-dollar bash.

Anyway, I thought of its squalls of sound in terms of
pop resemblance:

1. 'Farmer John''s intro reminds me of Graham Coxon.
That's not really a good thing, in 2001; but it's no
great stain on the hide of the Horse either.

This reminds me, by the way. I stuck MODERN LIFE IS
RUBBISH on the CD the other day.




Greeted by minutes of silence, I decided to insert the
disc into the player and try again.

It disappointed somewhat. 'For Tomorrow' has been
acclaimed as a great London story blah blah, but it is
so darned *graceless*. There's even that terrible
moment when Allbran sings 'tomorr-OHHH!! SINGING!!!'

As Batman would have said:
DAMON - *OUCH!*

I don't know. Is anyone gonna stick up for that LP
now?

I have just reminded myself,

2. 'Days That Used To Be' is, listen carefully now,

*** THE MISSING LINK BETWEEN 'MY BACK PAGES' AND 'I
DON'T WANNA GET OVER YOU'. ***

Don't believe me? Try it.

Thinking about this reminded me of the old, old
question about what it is of which 'IDWGOY' is a
pastiche. The answer 'nothing' is unhelpful. I have
always thought in terms of 'The Oldest Swinger In
Town'.

HAVE I FAILED?
