Good stuff Mike! finally have time to read your blog! Seattle’s Jeff Angell leader of Walking Papers writes some great lyrics. “I was born with blood shot eyes and a broken heart; I've got the experience but I'm not very smart. I was raised on a shoestring, I was thrown to the wolves. I cut my teeth on minor chords, I was trampled under hooves. If love is blind, baby, you can leave me in the dark.”
That was fun, Michael! Thanks! A topic never really brought up....the recorded segue! An entire album was formatted like that, not unlike a radio station playing hits back-to-back, understandable when you consider the artist: "The Raspberries Best" LP!
I flipped when I first heard it, because you knew the band and/or Capitol had exactly that in mind--hits played on the radio non-stop, without the 5-second banding on most albums! I couldn't find the album on YT, and Spotify, while they have the album, all they do is provide the songs that were on the album, which, of course, means they're not allowing for the natural way the album was produced and pressed. *sigh*
It WOULD be fun to ferret out other songs that tracked seamlessly on albums like the Jackson Browne example. The WHY would certainly be interesting, too! Thanks again!
