"I could swear I'm not alone . . . "
Nice to finally confirm that I'm not! When I mention the Church to nonbelievers (heh), I usually get a blank look unless someone may vaguely relate to my successive recalling of the summer of '88 and UTMW.
Random Pan
-- Yes! GAF is the course of some sort of dream-day . . . do you think this was deliberate on their part? (cf. XTC's
Skylarking
) . . . and as if to prove the notion further, on my cassette-cut of GAF, I tacked on "Ride Into the Sunset" as the album closer. (A happy ending after all...?)
Marcelo
-- Seasonal albums! I definitely have a few. GAF for me: late summer, almost-Autumn. And also an agreeing nod to your earlier notion of the Starfish-GAF Moment / siamese-twin taping. I made that tape several times and wound up indoctrinating various friends! (And yes, they're still friends...)
John DiFool1
-- well, of course; that's what the opening post of this thread was all about. Still, goodwilled criticism and healthy skepticism are important, despite being oft taken the wrong way! And I can relate to your experience -- being also a fan of Marillion (another difficult situation), I listened to their '98 release
Radiation
once
, sprayed it with Lysol, put it on the "sellback" pile and went out for some fresh air.
But I kept not selling it back for some reason. Just this past summer I finally forced myself to listen to it again, and lo 'n' behold, I "discovered"
some
not-bad-at-all, actually-rather-good tracks. Who knows; maybe you could challenge yourself to revisit GAF . . . but of course, no guarantees, "no certainty attached" you'll hear it anew.
********************
POST-SCRIPTVM to previous post (as if it wasn't long enuff)
-- That probably wasn't
ratiug cirtcele
atop "Laughing"; looking thru the liner notes, I see a mention of the e-Bow. Ah. Well, same effect (so to speak)...
-- Gahhh! The vinyl edition of GAF didn't include "Monday Morning" either! Oh, those poor suffering fools who may only know GAF by turntable . . .
--Lt.
A guitar by itself rules nothing.
Only by skillful manipulation does it come alive
