Yeah. I bought it because it was $9 at Borders -- if you're going to
patronize evil places, at least don't give 'em much -- and it struck me
as a $9 record. Not that good, not that bad. I'm looking forward to
seeing her in a couple of weeks, but I doubt the CD will go into any
sort of rotation here. Maybe it'll grow on me... but probably not.
And I damn near needed a crowbar to get it out of the damn plastic
case. The reason those Rykodisc tines break is that they aren't made to
move when you take out the CD.
np - Bruce Robison, Wrapped, and maybe he should've had more influence
on her CD, since this one's mighty fine...
