Funny you say that LM. When I first started coming into interference, you guys were talking about DSOTM and discussing songs. I didn't even know which songs you were speaking of, because to me it was all just one big opus. Of course Money and Time are easily figured out, but the others, I had to go look up to see which parts of the album they were. I'm guessing my friends probably would be the same :lol: Of course, when it came out, getting absorbed in whole sides of albums was was common :drunk:

And I cherish the art of album-making, definitely! The idea of artists releasing only singles in the future bugs me. DSOTM appropriates the term "album" better than most anything else out at the time, I feel. There were some other album-long musical opuses (not to be confused with concept albums) like What's Going On around, but I can see why DSOTM became a phenomenon.

Oh yes. Well, their biggest albums anyway, like Time & Tide and True Colours. Never heard any of that really early stuff you mentioned some time ago, where you said it was more folky.

:shocked:

oh, and only their really early stuff is folky. like before they had a record deal, and their first couple singles. their first album is...i guess i'd say prog? i don't know.
 
This is probably waaaayyy off whatever subject you are currently discussing but I saw the title of this thread and just felt the need to share this lovely tidbit -- I know someone who was arrested in Alphabet City. :)
 
Khan, I got to see the Enz quite a few times and it seems like Tim always insisted on doing I HOpe I Never. So after a while I was kinda sick of it and wishing he would just do something else already. Finally at one show, he pulled out Stuff and Nonsense instead. One of my faves that I had never heard live.
I literally jumped outta my seat. It ruled the night :drool:

Shouting at the kids to get ready so I can take them to dancing :|. Yippee.
