The debut I find a bit tough to get into initially. When I first bought it, I thought of returning it, but it grew on me like killah fungus. So that I can understand. Its appeal is not immediate as the following two efforts would be. But prissy, contained, and reserved...MUTHAFOCK@#$%^&*(...Hell, I AM a Tribe head. They're my favorite rap group ever, and I'm pretty obnoxious and annoying. (But only on the Internet, baby!)

I found myself transixed and playing songs over and over again and forcing others to listen to stuff
Alex in NYC, I love you but I fart in your general direction

The sounds of a badger being forcibly grated through the strings of an acoustic guitar.

I don't have strong feelings about her, but she makes a lot more sense if you consider her ties to Springsteen & Blue Oyster Cult, rather than Richard Hell or Television. And relating her to Ramones or Dead Boys doesn't make any sense at all, in retrospect.

She reminds me most of Mark E. Smith. Not in her content, but more in the meth-fueled stream of consciousness, just run through a different brain.

Listened to it once.
Really liked it.
Never listened to it again.
How queer!

just got offed just saw patti smith live at the cambridge junction
the music was good, lively, toe-tapping rock stuff, the performance was superb, and patti herself absolutely riveting, her between-song patter sweet, self-parodic, earnest and very funny all at once. and that's BEFORE i get onto her ad-libs during songs. most of which were about her excitement at being in cambridge, a place of 'peace and knowledge' (yeah, right!). and meeting a cow. or something. very bizarre (if amusing) soliloquy during extended Hendrix cover. oh, and she also made a lot of meeting some 'brothers' (turned out to be 'fellows') earlier on in the day. and told a lovely anecdote about shoes. what's not to love?
it did help that her backing band were superb.

I like Gloria and Land of a Thousand Dances. Everything else about the album disappointed me after hearing 20 years or so of hype.

I got the double CD version at fopp a while ago for £5 (must have been a mistake of pricing), and I can say that previously I was of an Alex in NYC mind (well, I wouldn't say vile, but I could say I couldn't see it)....
However, the second CD has the "Don't look back" gig recreation of the full album, and here it sounds great/alive/relevant.
So, um, try that one.

Her poetry in that one is terrible. I can't stand her beyond horses. But I'll always stand by horses.
― filthy dylan, Wednesday, 24 October 2007 21:41 (sixteen years ago) link
I like the song Horses, but the album as a whole is a bit meh.
