John Henry has its 30th birthday tomorrow!
What are your favorites off this album? Thoughts in general?
Personally, I think it’s a crime Mrs. Train and Welcome to the Jungle were excluded from the final album. Still waiting for Superfueld Freaksicle. 😉
Also, the TMBG merch shop’s having a sale, including a free download of the mastered demos and 20% off anything with the code TMBGWORLD, if anyone’s interested.
A lot of amazing songs on this album. AKA Driver, Meet James Ensor, Extra Savoir-Faire, and End of The Tour pop to mind right away. I also liked it when Michael McKean recited End of the Tour on a Tale of Two Johns.
No One Knows My Plan, Dirt Bike, and Destination Moon are all top contenders on this album for me. Though knowing it’s got a big milestone happening tomorrow, I think I will give the whole album another listen and see if there are some gems I have forgotten about.
Subliminal will always have a place in my heart. Great driving song. It just rolls.
