My favor...Love this "Like this" material. My favorite dB's album and probably in my lifetime top 25. Thanks so much for providing the live/demo compilation. They won't replace the album itself but are really cool to hear and made me hear some of the tunes in a new light.

Astonishing that that CD could be out of print.<br /><br />Hearing the live "Amplifier" reminded me of the track that at one time was on the db's website (might still be there) of a version of "Amplifier," created (so the story goes) when a musician who had auditioned for a position as an on tour guitarist with The db's did not think he had gotten his full abilities across and so sent back a track with loads of guitar riffs and effects layered onto Amplifier. I love the track, as it's so over the top, not just the guitars but also the intro of his girlfriend supposedly smashing stuff. Plus I actually like pop music with a nutty guitarist on top (think Matthew Sweet with Lloyd or Quine). <br /><br />I am sure you know about that track, but if not check it out.<br /><br />Ace K.bglobe313https://www.blogger.com/profile/00308428545934319473noreply@blogger.com
