That window slammed shut in a hurry, didn't it? I will miss Joe, but the September slumps the past two seasons are all the proof you need that a change was necessary. Could be a very different team by spring training. Keep up the good work at IPSML. We have a shared love for the Wild Swans and The Coldest Winter For A Hundred Years. That album felt like a miracle.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04321051045499549249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815215641735446886.post-7400755922604400582019-11-25T23:02:02.848-05:002019-11-25T23:02:02.848-05:00Hey Brian,

Went and checked out the first two singles and reminds me of Blue in Heaven a bit but that sound just oozes of the time. Definitely hearing the shift post-Newton. Anything from then you highly recommend from '88 onward?<br /><br />Enjoy all that free time in October without Cubs playoff ball? Me neither.<br /><br />--HowardHowardhttp://twitter.com/indiepopsavedmylifenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815215641735446886.post-12120925658983611132019-11-24T16:50:13.986-05:002019-11-24T16:50:13.986-05:00Hi, C.

I honestly don't know how well known the Wild Flowers were in your neck of the woods, but I'm guessing not very. As you would expect, they were not known over here either... even with the eventual signing to Slash. I only knew of them because of I liked other bands on Chapter 22. Still, I enjoyed listening to these singles yesterday. Thanks for chiming in.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04321051045499549249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815215641735446886.post-19815360697447212342019-11-24T13:48:59.267-05:002019-11-24T13:48:59.267-05:00I totally missed out on these at the time but know...I totally missed out on these at the time but know I would've had to have them if I'd heard them then - as you say, can certainly hear shades of E & the Bunnymen and the Mighty Lemon Drops.Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02423624920558505937noreply@blogger.com
