![]() Tough to choose this set.
"Earl Grey" probably is the least "definitive" And, I guess "Mission Bell" since it's a cover.

![]() Jeremy says in the part 1 thread that, save Mission Bell and One Together, he isn't happy with his stuff on the album. What!? I can't imagine not ever listening to Hi Ho Silver and Buddy's Song four times in a row.

![]() Interesting. When Peter heard the rough mix of 'Buddy's Song', he said it was 'fantastic'! But there again, he and I shared a love for 50's music, and Buddy Holly in particular. Apparently, not everyone's taste, though! I was a bit disgruntled that I didn't sound enough like Buddy, I suppose. Although the original version was recorded by Bobby Vee, lyrics written by Ella Holley.

There's really NOTHING on Kiln House that I DON'T like these days. (although "Earl Grey" has kind of dropped down the list a bit; although the first few years of owning the album, I played it over & over, trying to learn how to play it.) Pretty darned solid album from the beginning of "This Is The Rock" through the end of "Mission Bell". ![]()

![]() I missed round 1 but after viewing the results I was very surprised as for me the best songs are Jewel Eyed Jewel by far followed by Buddy's Song. On round 2 I think Earl Grey is a great little jam
![]() Why is this only from Kiln House onwards in The Early Years section? If the early albums have been done before can some please post a link so I can see the results. |

![]() I went for Earl Gray too, although I was tempted by Tell me all the things you do as well. I've always really liked One together and Mission Bell- it's part of the gentleness of Kiln House that acts as an antidote to the drama of Then Play On, if that makes any sense- Christine singing "Say you love me..." on MB always makes me smile. Purple Dancer is brilliant- I only wish the original B-side was available on CD/MP3- I have the version on the Madison Blues, but it lacks a certain oomph in one or two places. Did Jeremy and Danny ever share the lead on anything else that was released? I can't think of anything else. It's definitive by being unique- as the only official Danny/Jeremy/Chris/John/Mick release as well.

![]() As for your second question, there are quite a lot of "hits" and "best of" collections for the eras before Kiln House. The transition years (which is Kiln House to Heroes), seem to have fallen of the wayside. ![]() ![]()
