Drum Crazy (The Chicago Flash/22 Original Mono Recordings 1936-1950) - Gene Krupa

Advantages: Good Music
Disadvantages: Some bad language

...A good all round record with a nice mix of songs and music that should suit everyone. I would recommend it for those who want to be adventurous or inspired. There's also some really nice guitar solos on this album. I never get tired of listening to it. A very recommended buy. ***** ****** ******** ******* ******** ******* **** ***************** ****** Gene Ween: Vocals Dean Ween: Guitars Claude Coleman Jr.: Drums Andrew Weiss, Mean Ween, Patricia Frey Stephen, and Scott Lowe: Miscelaneous Produced, Recorded, and Mixed by Andrew Weiss Baby Bitch & The HIV Song recorded by Greg Frey Dedicated in Loving Memory to John Candy (1950-1994) ******** ******* ******************************************* ********** For more information about the band check out these websites:- http://www.ween.com/chocodog/ween/ http...

Advantages: It's a blur album
Disadvantages: Shite cover

...Think Tank is a great album.

Black Diamond. I’m going to use that word again! Classic! A true classic! Maybe even the best track on this album. All Kiss fans love this, and its another that is popular live ~ the crowds join in, and it all sounds amazing. And again, the studio version lacks power... Read review
