I heard "Mutual Surrender (What a Wonderful World)" on the radio - once. It was a nifty track that appealed to me enough to look for the album. I bought the CD, and the other song I liked that made it onto a few mixes was "Dying to Be Free," an oddly haunting track that really appealed to me. A year later the band was seemingly everywhere with their infectious "I Don't Mind at All," a song barely three minutes long that sounded like nothing else the band had recorded. To many, it was the biggest bait and switch since Coke had tried to rebrand back in 1985. Okay, maybe not that big, but I had a friend who bought the album thinking he was getting the new Beatles and declared it was a huge steamy pile of poop, aside from one great song. I don't have Yoyo on vinyl (I have it on CD), but I did recently find a sealed copy of their debut, and I know I already have it on CD and I'm not supposed to be doubling up, but come on, a sealed copy? It was chea...
A place where I blather on about music, vinyl, memories, nostalgia, things I miss, things I'm excited about, or stuff I just found and want to share. I could also be deliberately trying to waste your time. I generally don't know what I'm talking about, but sometimes I do. This is mostly a stream-of-consciousness brain dump, a reaction video without the images. Mostly, I'm just rambling. It's meanderambling. #oldenoughtoforget #oldenoughtoforget
