Here's some eye candy for those who actually read this thread. I've only listened to it once so I really don't have a feel for the music yet - nothing really stood out though. Clapton plays the guitar parts, which are noticeably bluesey. But I don't think they fit the music as much as Jeff Beck's guitar did on Amused to Death.

FYI the cover you show was only avaiable in the first pressing, after which the censors demanded and got a more "modest " cover with a black bar covering the butt crack. As such the bare butt cover is more collectable and commands a higher price, which conversly means that if the cover is not important to you a few bucks can be saved by geting a "family friendly" version.

Just in from Radio-Active Records in Ft. Lauderdale, had this in my hand, but put it back as wasn't sure if any good.

The butt crack was not blacked out.

Richard Galliano: Gallianissimo

Dreyfus Jazz CD (French Import)

From Amazon:

By showing him off in smartly varied settings, this pleasing collection serves both committed fans of French accordionist Richard Galliano and those unfamiliar with his work.

BobM, are you going to put this one on your Christmas list?

FWIW - I have no idea if there is any SQ difference between the original pressing and the later censored covers, I was just commenting about the difference in price that I had observed on the used market.

Just showed up in the office mail, so I'm listening via my lap-top and 'Coby' head-phones ;)
Driving drum beats, heavy guitars, and sultry female vocals, very reminiscent of Evanescence.
I like it and I'm psyched to get it home and give it a proper listen.

Also, they'll be playing a local bar on 12/30 so I may go and see them live  :thumb:
