| Yeah I guess in reality it is my views on TMiL that s an aberration in my otherwise fairly consistent philosophy. Which is that music can nt be damaged, basically. I've never beeen overly offended by a terrible shit-house cover version of a song. cause the original is still there. And if no-one ever covered anything then you'd miss out on somew real gems. If a band moves on with a different guitarist / vocalist / percussionist / roadie then fine, it's good to have the variety. It just doesn't worry me, just as it wouldn't if the people stayed the same but they suddenly decided to change their name. The thing that erks me about TMiL is mainly that it was Meat Loaf cutting off his nose to spite his face. Its existence doesn't degrade Bat 1 or 2, but it DOES stop Jim's Bat 3 from happening. And for what? For having it finished 24 months earlier, with half the vocals unbearable and the arangements flat? It's the same with Genesis with Ray Wilson as lead vocalist. I love the last album they ever made, it was big in Europe and Worldwide but flopped in America (where they have the attentionspan of a newt and think genesis is synonymous with Phil Collins) and so they thru the whole thing away. Fuckers! Just keep going! A line-up change altered their reaction in America so they throw their hands up in the air and quit. not good enough, damn it! > > Paul Rodgers, and everything you say, is all well and > good.
