i try

in all sincerity....i could never really get into Love And Rockets save their "hits"....i mean i have their greatest collection and enjoy it....but have no interest in tracking down the full length albums

but i love Tones on Tail

i also just want to say that with all the love for Pink Floyd around here....it really surprises me that there is so little talk about The Legendary Pink Dots....who are basically like Pink Floyd on a bad trip gone horribly wrong

I've only heard Tones on Tail a few times so I've never really formed an opinion about them. I would say that Express; Earth, Sun, Moon; and the self-titled are all Love and Rockets albums that are really worth checking out. The rest are hit-or-miss.

I have an album or two by The Legendary Pink Dots but have never been totally able to get into them. Maybe I should give them another spin.
