Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

Bacharach reportedly called Love's version 'neurotic' - but it's about that anyway seems to me.

Thank you.
Bacharach tribute in public TV plead-a-palooza recently did that thing that annoys me so much: performers named, NO identification whatsoever on what TV show and date of any the musical clips.
