- Years ahead of their time! They weren't ready for this stuff in 1972. It took some years for the old world to catch up with them. They were the new world. Taking this one with me to the desert island.
- Edited one year agoNever ever get tired of this album! Pablo Picasso is the greatest song in rock history! Punk before there was punk! Definitely ahead of their time!!!!!!
- Hello, Can anyone recommend a pressing? I've read sketchy things about the 4 Men With Beards pressing, but wasn't sure if one of other pressings stood out. Thanks!
- In 1984 I was 16 and the singer in a (crappy)punk band. We covered “Road Runner” because the Sex Pistols did on Swindle and we could figure out the chords. None of us had heard the original, I thought it was cool that they had Stop and Shop and a 128 in the UK. Hey, there was no internet and I was kinda dumb
Oh and I lived in Massachusetts too (Newton)
I eventually heard the original and wanted a copy. I found one at Nuggets in Kenmore Square, but it was $10!! At the time that was the most money I ever spent on a used record. I’m glad I bought it - Everybody knows Jerry Harrison later joined Talking Heads, but who knew that David Robinson later joined The Cars?
- Totally a seminal rock record, even more impressive when you realise that the are essentially 1971 songs, produced in the studio with wizard genius John Cale in early 1972, going unreleased for 4 years! Way ahead of its time, if you place it in its true time context. An all-time favourite.
