Well I think its outtakes from two older albums. So I'm not sure this was an album so much as a contract obligation filler.

The other thing is I generally love anything with horns. And I have to ask, because its my nature, but do you think you don't like the album or the critical acclaim because Good News is when they blew up by exponential figures.

I'm always weary about things like that. To me the best thing about Good News... was not "Float On" but "Bukowski" and similalry with Ship Sank... not "Dashboard" but "March into the Sea" or "Missed the Boat."
