I wasn't suggesting you come up with another Imaginos given current
budget considerations.  Besides, Imaginos evolved over many years [I
think? and represented a bit of collaboration with Sandy, right?]
Apples and oranges, this I understand.  The only reason Imaginos was
a bomb was because people weren't smart enough to buy a great album,
not because of any artistic deficiencies.  BOC had already started to
sag, and I suspect a lot of the fans had moved on.

As I said to somebody else, I can listen to Howard make shit jokes
all morning for free.  Maybe I'm just a repressed old fuck who
doesn't get the current direction of music.  For that I apologize.
As for my being out of it...Well, Al, I'm one of your biggest fans...
