I'm with lennonfan on this, except that I even like a lot of Yoko's "shreiking"
songs like "Why." It's even poignant taken in the context of the pain of not being able to see her daughter. Tuneful? No, but there are plenty of others to listen to for tuneful. Just like Metal Machine Music, it serves a purpose for me. Linda McCartney, well, I've heard the board tapes of her background concert singing and it's pretty horrendous. But I also have to remember just how difficult it can be in a live band situation to actually hear the rest of the band, and I have to give her some benefit of the doubt. (But I don't listen to McCartney anyway . . .) --Bob Farace "I only believe in fire." --Anais Nin |

I think Reed was heavily tongue in
cheek on MMM, and for that, it worked. Actually he was heavily dosed on amphetamines, and from what I've read didn't have much of a sense of humor at that time. Part of the fun of MMM, though, are all the contradictory interviews he gave about it, many of which are compiled in Psychotic Reactions and Carburetor Dung, the collection of Lester Bangs's writing. Fun stuff. --Bob Farace "I only believe in fire." --Anais Nin |

That backing track sounds modern even today tho its 35 years old....and it would be better without the screaming IMO. |
