" what you want -- what you get !!!....... what i want is a whole lot more"
This is off the album, "Modes of Transportation" Note that he is transposed over the face of John Travolta in the Boy in the PLastic Bubble. I found this life saving gem at the right time while I was living in Chicago. I had just broken up from a bizarre love thing with an infamous songstress and this CD sort of saved my sanity. Artistically speaking.

Needless to say I was also glad to be out of the Detroit radio market so I welcomed any kind of new sounds that didn't reflect Stone Temple Pilots. My method of madness back then was to walk into a record store, in this case, Reckless Records in Chicago and just buy music based on the album art, (while disregarding the price tag). This is not a very cost effective or scientific way to choose music but in my case it paid off.
Spookey, (who got his name from wearing scary heavy metal t shirts) is well versed in pop music. He sounds like XTC meets a tornado meets a perfect storm. Incredible effort. This soon became the soundtrack for a very turbnulent time in my adult years.
If I had to do it all over again. Id scrap the relationship and get straight to the music. I adored this stuff. In this time period I was finding the levels that went well beyond Beck and commercial radio. Wendy Mc Donald is an amazing tune.
