Which reminds me, Rob - I traded up my 'Pacific Ocean Blue' for the 2-CD version, and funnily enough, I like the second disc ('Bambu', etc.) better than POB 'proper' (which still sounds like an 'OK, but no better than OK' album).

Yeah some of the Bambu stuff is awesome, I had it on bootleg for years but the released versions are obviously way better...plus Tug Of Love and Only With You were new to my ears along with a couple of others.

I can also recomment the Smile boxset by The Beach Boys, 1967 would have been a great year for them if it was released as planned

Yeah, I'm planning to get it. I have one of the many Smile bootlegs, and the Brian Wilson/Wondermints re-creation. How does it compare with them?

It's better than Brian's solo version even though I like that one. I've listened to all 5 CDs and it'd probably boring to you but I found the way it was pieced together, and Brian's continual re-starting and craving of perfection, totally fascinating.

The 2 CD is about a tenner, I got the £150 box set off eBay for ninety quid

TBH I'm not really a huge Smile fan. What I DO like though, is the 'Brian solo at the piano, plus trumpet' version of 'Surf's Up' from those sessions. Columnated ruins domino, and all that.

Heh, no, they're the ultimate super group in themselves. :nod: And I think Freddie would've found it very hard to work with those guys, maybe apart from DeGarmo.

Sebastian Bach got in ahead of Geoff Tate beacuse I wanted to have DeGarmo in this band. Don't think this line up would work very well, though. :P

Aye, from a 1966 Leonard Bernstein TV documentary

Me likes! Was going to make one and would have never put J Mascis in it but he fully deserves to be! Awesome guitarist!

Jeff Buckley has the best vocals I think i've ever heard too.
