You have a good sense of when to share some MP3s with us (usually as a special mix or a live show you can't buy) and then when to just encourage all us music fans to GO BUY THE THING to keep guys as cool as Tommy in business. <br /><br />Frankly, that is worth a lot more than me than some sites out there that just link to the whole album with nary a comment. Yeah, you get it free, if you want to go that route, but your way is better. Your review got me interested (I've become a fan just since 'Crashing The Ether,' actually) and you can bet I'll be buying it from my local record shop.<br /><br />Keep up the great work.<br /><br />p.s. cool video. You really get a sense of why a guy like Keene keeps doing it. I mean, he's on the fringes of the fringe sales-wise I'm sure. He could probably make more being an accountant. But I'll bet he does it b/c he HOPES cool-lookin' people like in the video will just simply crank it and have a party with this in the mix. That is pretty cool to me.A walk in the woodsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-79078281871275968362011-10-05T15:11:46.185-07:002011-10-05T15:11:46.185-07:00"Some have been better than others, but none ..."Some have been better than others, but none have been bad."<br /><br />Couldn't have put it better as always Sal!<br /><br />Great return to form.<br /><br />It is his best album since Based On Happy Times and as Sal mentions, the masterpiece is Songs From The Film.<br /><br />Lots of people throw around Power Pop Classic around, Songs From The Film is that.<br /><br />No 7 in the Shake Some Action Top 200 list, I'd have it Top 5.Anything Should Happenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05593722184088140203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-30518468323688224252011-10-05T11:44:38.947-07:002011-10-05T11:44:38.947-07:00Hmmm....

"Back Again (Try)" blew me away when it came out in what 82 or 83 but for some reason I was really disappointed by Songs from the Film (I can't remember why now).
