With the exception of School's Out, Elected and Under My Wheels, I totally agree with Dennis.

Great article! I think this is a better selection than AC's Greatest Hits! At least he goes all of the way back to the "Pretties" Lp! :clap:

It's a pretty good selection, though I'd have a different track from Easy Action, maybe Shoe Salesman or Laughing At Me. I'd also drop Black Juju for something else.

Interesting Dennis claiming he wrote Under My Wheels. I remember someone here, years ago, saying Alice was furious when he saw his name was not on the credits. I guess with all the booze he didn't notice until years later. :laugh:

From pitkin88:
"I remember someone here, years ago, saying Alice was furious when he saw his name was not on the credits. I guess with all the booze he didn't notice until years later."

It really is pretty hard to imagine Alice being "furious" about anything and besides, who you see stated as being the composer or composers of a song doesn't always tell the whole story but in any case, my understanding has always been that Dennis wrote the lyrics and a great deal of the music for that song and that Alice had no involvement.

Like DD's selection- especially Luney Tune and Generation Landslide- would like to hear AC doing Luney Tune live

I've asked him to do that on two separate occasions and still he hasn't done it. Shocking.

It is a great article and some good choices by DD. After reading, can hear the "Wipe Out" style drumming in "Return Of The Spiders" that I hadn't noticed before. Would liked to have seen some thoughts on "Man With The Golden Gun" if time/space had allowed.

A good read. I find Fields Of Regret almost unlistenable though.
