i rep for "Wino Junko"!

balls you are forgetting "Run Devil Run," which is pretty great, I mean I'd feel pretty good if I could do dad-rock that decently at dad-age.

I still have a burned copy of Chaos & Creation courtesy of ~somebody~, I should probably give that some more spins. I remember "Fine Line" being pretty solid, the rest is kinda hazy.

i'm sure this will draw guffaws but the one time i heard that 'valentine' song on snl it sounded pretty good for me, certainly more than i expected when i heard he'd done a rod stewart standards album, good enough he'd written every song of the album instead of tackling johnny mercer etc. better than 'my love'!

Memory Almost Full >>> Chaos

I had a similar experience, balls. "My Brave Face" and FITD got massive promotion, coinciding with "Veronica" becoming Elvis C's biggest American hit. FITD the first Macca album I bought, and it still holds up. No one wants to believe that "This One" is one of his very best silly love songs.

Nah, I definitely think Chaos > Memory Almost Full. I think Memory Almost Full has some good stuff on it, but there's nothing on Chaos that's as terrible as Memoory Almost Full's low points: 'Gratitude' and 'Nod Your Head'.
