Subject: Screwed up stickers...
So there's a copy of RUTH with "Tarzan Boy" on the other side? Is it worth money :-)? My most screwed-up album is Chrome's Raining Milk, tho it's screwed in a different way. First there's the not-unusual error: side one and side two have their stickers switched. Of course with Chrome, you can't understand the lyrics anyway, so it's kind of hard to tell before the 4th or 5th hearing :-). Also, some of the song titles on the stickers don't agree with the titles on the album cover. One song is listed as both "Legende de Fantom Futur" and something like "Sentence du Legende Futur" (ugh, excuse my hopeless memory and minimal French). Mistakes aside, Chrome has some great depressing music and impressive song titles. There are two songs with the placename (?) Gehenna in them. Anyone can point me to a reference? I assume it's biblical, since one of the songs is "Gehenna and Canaan". And of course, Chrome had the bad taste to do a song called "Anorexic Sacrifice", supposedly on Karen Carpenter. Bill Hsu
