You Really Don't Need Anything After An Ice Cream

File Dirk Wears White Sox next to The Clash under "British Albums That Are Actually Better In Their Adulterated, Americanized Formats".

"Cartrouble" was never the kind of song that needed a surreal prologue. And I'll take "Kick!" over "Kick" any day.

Sure, the good versions are included as bonus tracks, but it's annoying to have to start the CD on track 18.

. . . Aw, hell, who'm I kiddin'? Whatever order I have to play it in, so long as I get to "Animals And Men", I'm fine. And however much I loathed "Tabletalk" at 13, that's exactly how much I adore it today.

Teaser: I also have a funny story about Prince Charming. Remind me. And keep your feet off the upholstery, Ronnie!

Thank you! Maybe I should post more than once or twice a year . . . How'd you stumble upon this one, anyway?
