In other words get 'Nuggets'. One of the greatest and most influential compilations ever.

ACIrons 3:17 Same here. It's a masterpiece, even if it was put together under far from ideal circumstances. Doesn't hurt that I love Stacy's songs/guitar playing/singing, and that's the album he got to do the most on.
Big Dave 2:42 - You know it!

My missus is a producer - does adverts for tv - and quite often asks for ideas for music etc
I was so close to getting "You're going to miss me" used on a beer commercial a couple of years ago.
Was gutted when the company said they didn't like it.
Cunts - he could have done with the money n'all.

I think, even if Erickson hadn't been zapped, it is a bit of a leap of faith to believe they would have been bigger than The Doors.
He is schizophrenic.
Strange - was listening to The Sound a lot last night. Another great band that didn't make it partly due to the lead singers mental health issues.
