BOC: MISC. HF

[John A Swartz]

>Well it had to happen.  An opinion about opinions and inevitable
comparisons to BOC's storied history.  Not totally unexpected given the
personality of the list.  It's all good G.

RIGHT!  Remember when we kept saying how we had nothing new regarding
BOC to talk about?  There were folks who joined BOC-L, only to quit a
few months later because there was nothing new for a lot of us old-
timers to talk about.  And we always said, "Now, if/when they get a
new album out...".  Well, they did, and, true to our word, we're having
lots of discussion - some positive, some negative - almost all
thoughtful - as it should be here.

>Well you guys are entitled to feel whatever way you want about HF but I
love it unconditionally.  I will say the novelty has worn off but not my
appreciation for the contents.  It sounds good even after 50 plus
playings.

I agree, although the novelty hasn't quite worn off - probably 'cuz I
only listened to it about 15 times so far...  ;-)

>Quickies - Thank you FAQMAN, goes a long way to restoring my lost
bookmarks.

No sweat.  Gotta do a little self-promotion every now and then... ;-)

>Five in the player -

1. BOC - Heaven Forbid
2. Brain Surgeons - Box of Hammers
3. X Brothers - Solid Citizens
4. Panther Moderns - Red Star (John Shirley's rendition of SYIB is here)
5. Swamp Boogie Queen (SBQ) - ILL-Gotten Booty

This last CD kicks, for those of you who haven't heard it - was also
released on that fabled day of March 24th, 1998
