What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library (cd)



Not sure why/how I picked this up, and it couldn't have been that long ago. I only own Bryter Later and it just
passes for me, even though the guitar work is brilliant. One of those bigger in death than life artists, Nick left
us with a studio work of three albums, selling a lot more of them after his death I'm sure, along with the 14
compilations that have been released. This is one of those posthumous works that just makes you wonder, how much
have they screwed with these outtakes and remixed tracks? Are there any tracks anything close to what Nick would
have done with them? On most tracks I think not. After all, Nick died in 1974 and we're using 2004 technology to
create his work. Most of these tracks do nothing for me. All but one have appeared on previous compilations, but
come on consumer, you need this version. I would think this album is for hardcore fans only, and I'm not one of
them.

I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Voices

Best Track - Three Hours

Three hours from sundown
Jeremy flies
Hoping to keep
The sun from his eyes
East from the city
And down to the cave
In search of a master
In search of a slave.

Three hours from London
Jacomo's free
Taking his woes
Down to the sea
In search of a lifetime
To tell when he's home
In search of a story
That's never been known.

Three hours from speaking
Everyone's flown
Not wanting to be
Seen on their own
Three hours is needed
To leave from them all
Three hours to wonder
And three hours to fall.

Three hours from sundown
Jeremy flies
Hoping to keep
The sun from his eyes
East from the city
And down to the cave
In search of a master
In search of a slave.
