er, "Little Johnny Jewel" as bonus track?

um ok.

'elevation' messes with my head every time, the jarring guitar 'thrang' after "come go to my head" - always sounds like there's a scratch on the record somehow.

Fade is on the LP and the 12" single.
Ending is on all CDs.

like "cha-cha-cha"
or with a big explosion?

unless it literally ends with a whimper.

But, there was the one time you expect it to fade and it doesn't, to a rousing crescendo, and the Moebius strip finally ends (it ran from 1977 to 1993 or thereabouts)

i take your point, the fade isn't a bad idea. i don't really mind that much though -- not enough to spunk for the remaster just yet anyway.

i was a fool not to listen to this whole album after 'marquee moon' took hold

This is basically the Beatles' "Taxman" extended to album-length.

The Blow Up vs. Live at the Waldorf?
― Mark, Sunday, 6 April 2014 20:17 (ten years ago) link
I'd personally go with the Waldorf set. It's vastly better recorded, and while the Blow Up might have slightly more firey playing, the sound is distant to the point that it blunts the impact of the music.

i will always love the two nerd free birds they wrote but man i just never really dig this band. (crit bands i have tried hard to love and can't love: young marble giants, the saints, television. there are others.)
still, loving two songs by a band ain't bad. that's two more than the the cruzados or phil 'n' the blanks.
― scott seward, Monday, 7 April 2014 00:03 (ten years ago) link
Wow...that's the first time I've seen Phil 'n' the Blanks mentioned since I picked up a copy of the Illinois Entertainer in 1987!

i don't own a single record by any of those CBgb art dudes. no hell, no t.v., no patti, no ramones, no heads. i do own a tuff darts album though. if they count. (those guys are easy to sell though which is why i never keep them. if i get the first ramones album in i play it once before i put it in the store.)
― scott seward, Monday, 7 April 2014 00:12 (ten years ago) link
( i lied. i play "loudmouth" and then i put it out in the store.)

skot obv that oughta be 'freenerds'
kinda feel like the freenerds are t.v. urtexts that cause all their other songs to be ones in which you hear fragments and reflections of t.h.e. freenerd

I really like Live at the Waldorf as an Adventure apologist because I feel like that shows that Adventure could have been nearly as classic as MM if not for such thin, brittle production, the Adventure tunes on there really shine IMO
