+1. North and South is in the neighborhood of good. The Ctc production was more merciful on the ballads.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑14 Jun 2020, 8:39pm"North and South" has a certain lament or wistfulness that conveys more real emotion than anything else on the album. Grading on a curve is a helluva thing, tho.
Honorable mention to We Are the Clash because I always thought it would be a funny song for someone to cover.

It was crying out for that change of title. The fact it got a mention in Ralph's book made my year, I must admit.Marky Dread wrote: ↑21 Jun 2020, 5:27pmNot as good as "We Aren't The Clash" by some bloke I know.

That was a fun night!
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.
