    • FYI for those of you who have never heard "Star Star": You should not listen to it at work.

                • DMT has timed out. Mith may pick.

                  • DMT has also filled up his inbox, so I can't PM him.

                      Musically, I've always thought this was a pretty cool little jam. The vocals just annoy the sh!t out of me for some reason. I wish they would release this as an instrumental.

                      "The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
                      "The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master - that's all."

                      • It may have been an instrumental at one time. Much of Tattoo You took basic tracks recorded between 1972 and 1980 and added vocals and overdubs to them. They were trying to get a new album out in time for a tour and didn't have time to do things the regular way.

                        Slave was from the 1975 Black and Blue sessions.

                        • Didn't know "Slave" was from the "Black and Blue" sessions! Damn good one, definitely would have been on my list. That's Pete Townsend on the backing vocals, maybe that's why they're so annoying (although I certainly could never hear him).

                          "Connection" is another good one!

                          My two "Exile" faves are still out there ("Shake Your Hips" was #3), I'm really scratching my head why one of them hasn't been selected.

                          My big sleeper is still out there, I would have taken it days ago!

                          • "Connection" was going to be one of my last two picks. Nice one Erik.

                            • 'Connection' and 'When the Whip Comes Down' were both on my list.
                              If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

                              • "Rip This Joint" was going to be my next pick.
