Songs About Not Being Loved
Does Dusty Springfield seem a little too timid for you? Lori Burton may be exactly who you're looking for.

LIARS!
So... This is a really fun album. One of the songs is called "Don't Sing Love Songs", and it's credited to the artist, but it's actually a really nice rendition of "Silver Dagger". Ehhh. Don't know how they got away with that.

Windswept
"Untamed landscape is a perfect setting for the restless heart. Reckless -- we see nothing -- we hear nothing -- is it a feeling only, or a state of mind? We only know we're swept away... the stuff that dreams are made of.
Vinyl... the stuff that discs are made of -- dreams themselves cut deep into a thousand grooves, like hieroglyphics on a tablet. What lies beneath the ebony surface, hard and gleaming and darkly reflective of deeper things?... secrets recovered only by diamond drawn across dark mirror of vulcanite.
Vulcan's mountain lair, where he fashioned from fire his terrible art, might well have been the Swiss alps. On the shores of Lake Geneva they will tell you how in winter, out-of-season, everything shuts down, and Montreaux becomes a ghost town. This splendid isolation was the perfect setting when Bryan Ferry arrived in the autumn of 1977 to make his new record.
In the spring of the next year he emerged with the controversial Bride Stripped Bare, which had been destined at one point to be a double album. These three previously unreleased songs are from the collection.
-S.P.P."

Lotta Lotti
For the record (no pun intended), this was ripped from a white-label promo with a different cover. I wish I'd written down what it said on the cover about Ms. Golden being a 19-year-old and blah blah blah. It was pretty entertaining. This sounds like some sort of cross between Patti Smith and Janis Joplin doing a confusing and a spontaneous concept album. It has some pretty good moments though.

Cool Record Coverom
At this moment in my life, I wish I'd bought this... just for the cover. I just looked it up and it's not worth anything.
