Several people have mentioned that "Heads We're Dancing" is something less than their favorite on TSW. Without getting into a debate about the worthiness of that song or the album itself, I have to admit that HWD is a favorite of mine for a special reason. Long before the release of the album, even before the promo tapes arrived at US radio stations, Love Hound extraordinaire Larry Hernandez (L-H) phoned long distance and played HWD for me from a horrible recording on his telephone answering machine. (How it ended up there at that time isn't mine to tell.) A most powerful experience, that being my first KonTact with the album we'd all been anticipating for years. Maybe that's why the hissy, muddy sound of that song doesn't faze me. Whenever I hear it, I hear that original faint version over the phone lines, one of the best things I'd heard in years. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Steve Williams I still dream of Org[ao]non. stevew@hal.com HaL Computer Systems Austin, Texas ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
