Generally hate Jeff Lynne's productions, too, although I loved "El Dorado.""

I guess there's a good reason they called that band "The Nerves!""
Julie Jurrjens replied to Eric Collins's discussion Rest in Peace, Davy Jones"One can't assume the worst; could just be genes. He really was scandal-free, as 60's pop icons go, not to mention a vegetarian and avid runner. The Monkees were one of the last intact 60's bands, with all the members living. End of an…"

Frank Miller said… Hi Eric,
Just out of curiosity, I was wondering if you might have a copy of your shoestrings ep for sale? I just recently heard it, and I like it allot; I think it's a great record. If you don't have any, maybe you might be able to stear me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Frank
