Minek nevezzelek, te sokbetűs új kiadvány, aki harmadik vagy a sorban a csúnyaborítós pénzértletöltősek között? Összesöpört kacatnak, vegyes felvágottnak, digitális majálisnak?

Jó, nincs ezzel a dologgal olyan nagy baj - ha mondjuk egy online rádióműsor lenne, az ember időnként odakattintana és egy mosoly kíséretében hallgatná. De így? "Hivatalos kiadványként"? Már-már sorlemezként? Pénzért?... Ilyen (szokásosan) ronda "borítóval"?
(Itt egy kis visszatekintés az előzőre, azért.)
Egy olvasói vélemény, másik nézőpontból:
1. Willie The Pimp - RAP verzió, miért is nem jutott eddig senkinek az eszébe?
2. Bobby Brown (Ahmet) - semmi különös, hallgatható.
3. Treacherous Cretins ('79) - remekmű, csak ez megéri az egész lemez árát.
4. The Deathless Horsie (Dweezil): méltó a Grammy-jelöléshez!
5. City Of Tiny Lites ('78) - az Odeon lemez előtt 2 nappal.
6. Your Mouth - mintha csak Macy Gray-nek írták volna.
7. My Guitar Wants To Kill Your Mama (88) - semmi különös.
8. Jumbo Go Away (79) - nem éppen kedvenc.
9. Peaches En Regalia (ZPZ) - nagyon jó.
10. Take Your Clothes Off When You Dance - ukulelén, szexi női énekkel!
11. The Torture Never Stops - klassz verzió, Jamie gitárja és Chloé francia betétje kiemelkedik.
12. Stairway To Heaven (88) - ökörködés, de hogy is lehetne másképp?
Egy kis érdekesség: a The Torture Never Stops-ot Chloe & Robert Trujillo (basszusgitár) játssza, igen: a Metallicából. Róla van szó:
