Title: I tried, but failed, to love this
Product review: I love early Saints, especially Prehistoric Sounds. So I tracked down the Laughing Clowns to hear more of Ed Kuepper doing the lead-horn instead of lead-guitar rock band thing. And they were good! So I wanted to like this collection of later Kuepper stuff very much, I honestly did, and I tried, and I tried, and I didn't like it, and I put the album aside, and I picked it up again, and I tried some more, I really did, but I just can't help it, when I close my eyes I picture some dreadful country rock from the 90s, something that would play at a Republican barbecue, the most uninteresting crap imaginable, it sounds like musical oatmeal! What happened?!? Oh well, win some lose some I guess. There are a couple really good songs on this three-disc set, but god, did I have to wade through some oatmeal to get to them.
