Andrew Loog Oldham Quotes

I get to listen to a lot of this music again doing my DJ work on Little Steven's Underground Garage. To hear Van Morrison on Them's version of "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue"- what a vocal, and what an arrangement. Also, I get to hear so many records that I missed the first time around - The Chocolate Watchband, Roky Erikson. It's an audio food fest, a total privilege, a second chance.
