320.0. "The Pasadenas" by LARVAE::MILLER_D () Mon Jan 23 1989 19:02

    Has anyone out there bought the CD/LP of the
    Pasadenas (sp?)?  I like the single but before
    splashing out on the CD I'd like to know if
    anyone can recommend it.
    
    Cheers,

    believe it or not haven't had the time to play it.

    else replies first!)

    Debbie,

        I too received the Pasadenas album from Santa, and have listened
    to it a few times. I think it's a wonderful album, but it isn't all
    like the singles ('Tribute' and 'Riding on a Train'). You know how it
    is when you listen to an album and think to yourself 'Spot the obvious
    single', well I thought that about almost the whole album (i.e. not a 
    duff track on it).

        I'd recommend it - now if only you were in Warrington I'd even let
    you borrow the CD :-)  [I don't know if there are any extra tracks on the
    CD or not - I'll have a look at the record sleeve next time I'm in the
    shops].

    Cheers,

        Derek.
320.3Upsetting the apple cartRDGENG::WESTWOODTue Jan 24 1989 12:2413
    Dear Debbie,
    Sorry about this but I'm going to put you in a bit of a dilema.
    I bought the album soon after it was released after being impressed
    with the energy and style of the two singles from the album.  As
    with the two previouse replies it was ages before I actually listened
    to it (seems to be a problem with the album).  However when I did
    I found some of the other tracks on the album to be fairly poor.
    Consequently I haven't been very motivated to play the album because
    I feel it lacks in fullness and continuity (If you know what I mean).
    Don't let me stop you buying it, its probably good just not that
    good.
