Quite frankly - I have expressed a view about the merits of one album. Is that a problem ? Not picked up a political bias in any of your previous threads but if I am out of some sort of Unstated order please spell it out.
It’s just that if you don’t like a record and every time it’s mentioned you slag it off, it’s a pain to read and comes off like trolling. My point is, I get that you’re not a Michael Jackson fan. But there’s no need to constantly feel the need to make it obvious. No one else is doing it.
I own 3 copies of Thriller. Chasing 2 more. The album I post about is an embarrassment. The individual persecution of my opinion is unworthy of you quite frankly. I had a great respect for you before this targeted sensorship If you want me to unfollow this thread just post so. Happy to leave you to your previously undisclosed bias.
That TTD album is excellent. He had some more strong tracks on later albums but the fact that this entire album featured on the 2cd comp of his that I have tells the tale. I saw reference to Aztec Camera earlier too...another artist with a good best of list.
There is no persecution of your opinion. You have stated your opinion and that is fine. It is the endless repetition of it that is becoming tiresome. I have no dog in this fight. I am not a Michael Jackson fan and feel no compunction to defend him. But any opinion about anything when it is endlessly hammered into the ground just stifles the conversation. Nobody is trying to censor your opinion, merely asking you or anybody not to just keep saying the same thing. It gets boring to read.
The Aztec catalogue is very underrated, and well worth revisiting. Knife is uneven but better than I used to think it was, while Dreamland now just sounds gorgeous to my ears. EG.
Ah Aztec Camera. He/they had a great run of records through the 80s. Somewhere In My Heart is one of my favourite singles of the decade.
Aztec was a slow grower for me Eric, I picked up High Land as a blind buy, -due to being on Sire back in the day. I finally got around to grabbing Stray and Dreamland last year.
High Land also isn't part of the latest WEA-era set (despite WEA reissuing it on their label!), so more reason to buy/keep any copies of that. I think I have 3 and counting...found a Rough Trade pre-barcode years ago without realising the significance. EG.
Apparently: yup! AllMusic says: Despite releasing just one album over a decade together, Breakfast Club will always have a place in the history books as the band that featured two of Madonna's ex-boyfriends -- drummer Stephen Bray and singer Dan Gilroy -- as well as the Material Girl herself, for a short time in her pre-fame days.
There is no Re/publication of my opinion. The OP is targeting me because of the opinion that I expressed. Once. This is disappointing.
