I just remembered that the first time I edited a Wikipedia page it was the one for Sunnyvista. yes

"After the artistic mismatch of the previous year's comeback album (First Light),"

Subjective opinion, no place in a reference work.

"Sunnyvista is a curate's egg of an album in terms of its mood. "

That's not what curate's egg means.

Who wrote this? It's full of things like: "Thompson tries his hand at funk on "Justice In The Streets" "

Tries his hand at? Unless that's a taken verbatim from an uncredited interview that's a statement of the intent, of which there is no evidence, say it's got a funk sound, not 'Thompson tried his hand at'

I was hoping for more of an uptake on the OMD album to be honest. I'm sure that was on FG3's list.

I haven't got Organisation.

I'll take part if someone supplies a playlist, and I can only do a Wednesday.

by Guest Mon May 11, 2020 5:35 pm

Well, that's Wednesday sorted out then. Excited

~~LMFAO~~ OMD and The Furry Psychos on WedneZ?

by Nightjar Mon May 11, 2020 6:07 pm

Wendi?

Your choices?

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Mon May 11, 2020 6:14 pm

I am cogitating on the matter...

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Mon May 11, 2020 6:31 pm

I have decided that we're doing Bridge Over Troubled Water at 7 o'clock, and Kim Wilde's controversial Select at 8:30.

Unless people want to do something else.

My decision is final.

Unless people say otherwise.

Both albums include songs with the word, "Bridge," in the title. That's planning for you. bowtie

It'll be interesting to compare how Paul Simon and the Wildes tackle the subject of bridges.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Mon May 11, 2020 6:36 pm

Possibly, one will be a suspension bridge and the other may be of the pontoon variety.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Mon May 11, 2020 6:37 pm

Perhaps a swing bridge will be involved.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Mon May 11, 2020 6:37 pm

Or even a toll bridge.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Mon May 11, 2020 6:38 pm

Remember, a bridge is just a pier that actually goes somewhere.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Mon May 11, 2020 6:39 pm

I have no doubt that point will be made on both records.

Could we not do them on two different Wednesdays?

by Guest Mon May 11, 2020 7:23 pm

I was just going to suggest that myself.

This Wens Psychedelic Furries, then next week OMG.

OMD.
