Calistan, speculative fiction rock at it's finest. I've taken 5 days to drive down one street, if it's Route 1 that he's refering to. Could be Sepulveda Blvd. if you make enough stops. My second choice (even though it won't count) is Bad Wicked World. |

I'd vote for "Los Angeles" as my favorite on the orange/yellow album.
Cattle in Korea / They can really moo. |

Adda Lee is probably tops on my list for Franks 1st solo.

space is gonna do me good is probably the best
headache, freedom rock and white noise maker are other highlights of this all-around amazing album.
So Im headed for the stereo store, to get a white noise maker, and turn it up to ten. |

my vote: headache
Whatever Happened To Pong? - 1 Thalassocracy - 2 (I Want To Live On An) Abstract Plain - 1 Calistan - 4 The Vanishing Spies - 1 Speedy Marie - 7 Headache - 1 Sir Rockaby - 1 Freedom Rock - 0 Two Reelers - 1 Fiddle Riddle - 0 Ole Mulholland - 3 Fazer Eyes - 0 I Could Stay Here Forever - 0 The Hostess With The Mostest - 0 Superabound - 3 Big Red - 1 Space Is Gonna Do Me Good - 1 White Noise Maker - 2 Pure Denizen Of The Citizens Band - 1 Bad, Wicked World - 1 Pie In The Sky - 1
"These waters run deep, it's clear my little one/Blue velvet star sky not a sound The light in your eyes, the smile on your ruby lips/Tells me my lost soul is found"
I vote for Fiddle Riddle. It's not my favorite on the album but it's just a perfect little pop number. Back in the 70s it would have made a great one hit wonder out of Frank. Imagine that, Frank at number one on the singles chart!
shine you still up for keeping score?

Superabound. Great song topic. And I do feel that way many times. Superabound, like multitasking in overdrive and yet, bored.

Speedy Marie. Never understood how it won TOTY Survivor at first but now it's my favourite track.

Time to give the 'Hostess' some love. To this day, that's one track I'll hit repeat on a couple times cuz I end up thinking "What the fock did I just listen to?" Outstanding.
