Well, just a brief thought here about the reviews I have been reading of =
the new disc. First off, it seems that Liquid 8 is doing a good job =
since there seems to be a lot of people reviewing the disc, meaning the =
release hasn't come and gone without notice as seemed to be the case the =
last 2 discs. However I have one problem wiht everyone's reviews I have =
read, they are giving it great reviews (which makes all of us happy for =
the positive reviews and press) but I do strongly disagree with the one =
sentiment I keep reading. Many reviews have said its the best disc since =
Deisel and constantly comparing it to Deisel, ok I can see with the =
theme of the album how you may draw parallels. A lot of us on the list =
disagree about Breathe and Redneck, Redneck being one of my all time fav =
Oils discs next to Red Sails, however I think most would agree with me =
that to agree with the reviewers is to discard Blue Sky which is a =
crime. Heck, when Blue Sky came out Rolling Stone said it was better =
than The Joshua Tree by U2 and one of the best albums of all time, so =
its a bit sad for me to read this (as a big fan) and see these people =
missing something so vital to the bands history.
Well, my little observance. I'll go back to my scheming here trying to =
find a way to make some East Coast shows, may be seeing Mr Palmer again!
