No deal."When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less."
"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."

Love the Police. Too bad they couldn't get along.."I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."

The Police and the Talking Heads were the bands that got me out of my Kiss/Van Halen/Kansas juvenile music phase. I know I should probably be taking another Police album here, but Ghost in the Machine is my personal favorite of their studio albums
I agree completely but would add Elvis Costello to that list
and Ghost might be a fave too - but the others suit me fine too

This is a little off topic, but is anyone here interested in a ready made collection of The Beatles or U2 CDs? I'm clearing out some stuff in the house as we're getting closer to the new house being sold and I think we're sort of subsidizing CDs in general.
The Beatles Collection includes:
The White Album
Please Please Me
Live at the BBC
1967-1970 (The Blue Album)
1962-1966 (The Red Album)
Magical Mystery Tour
Abbey Road (Sealed)
Let It Be
Yellow Submarine
Help!
Revolver
Rubber Soul
Beatles for Sale
A Hard Day's Night
with the Beatles
Lennon Legend
The U2 set includes
Wide Awake in America
The Joshua Tree
The Unforgettable Fire
Rattle and Hum
Achtung Baby
Zooropa
Pop
How To Dismantle and Atomic Bomb
I'm probably going to list them on half.com or take them to the local used music store to trade in on credit to buy some vinyl so I figured I'd open it up to the RJ Family first. I'd prefer to sell by collection if possible, but I'll consider individual discs to the ones of you that I like.

I was going to take the Smiths, guess I'll screw Pogues instead....."You know what's wrong with America? If I lovingly tongue a woman's nipple in a movie, it gets an "NC-17" rating, if I chop it off with a machete, it's an "R". That's what's wrong with America, man...."--Dennis Hopper

I will go to my grave never understanding the appeal of The Smiths. One syllable of Morrissey's singing, and it's "AAAAAAHHHHHH, make it stop make it stop MAKE IT STOP!" I want to kill puppies and babies when I hear him sing. When I die and go to hell, Satan will put me in a room with no exit, piping in Morrissey for all eternity.
I guess what I'm saying is, I'm not a fan."When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."

Certainly don't agree it's the greatest of all time of course, but it's a great record. Also, I thought it would match up well with the Joy Division pick. That's the cool thing about turn picks, you get to match pairs.
