I have Marshall in my car right now, along with a lot of crazy stuff. But my wife, whose tastes literally (and I mean literally in the most literal sense of the word) make me ill (commercial contemporary "country"), heard me singing along with Marshall on Mary Anne and turned and looked at me from the passenger seat as if I were humming along with a Gregorian Chant. She says, "you have very strange tastes." I'm working on her. Our marriage may depend on it. But I never thought she'd be so stubborn. By the way, Eric Olsen, I'm new to this site and I like the stuff you write. 16850@blogcritics.org Mon, 1 Sep 2003 01:31:10 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/08/29/175310.php#comment-16554 Love Marshall, always have. The first one is one of the power pop greats of all time. That's the one I would go with for an intro, as you mentioned. haven't heard this one but it sounds respectable. I liked his last one just fine, always do, but nothing like that first one. How many times have I said that? But it's often true - the first cut is the deepest. 16554@blogcritics.org Fri, 29 Aug 2003 20:39:47 EDT
