Yup, that's on the cover on my vinyl edition too.

BTW, I really love how Bill plays the whole suite of songs. What other radio station would do that?

This is the cover from the movie soundtrack I believe...I may be wrong but I think it added some songs and was a remix as well....

Once, Long ago, WCKW outside N.O. would never think to play Real me without playing I Am The Sea first.
Like listening to You Really Got Me by Van Halen without Eruption.

There have been some great bands played today - but all a bit melancholy - good to hear we're getting a bit more upbeat

Feeling better Bill?

I am starting to think that I could just listen to the sounds of the sea and the rain without the music . . . Argh. Apparently I've turned into a new ager.

Doesn't have to go into retirement, just save it for the end of the day, once all the necesarry things have been completed.

Drag that puppy out, or make a new one out in the garage, and fire it up! THE WHO IS ON!
Here comes that killer BASS! And Moonie's bashing! And that slashing Schecter! And Roger's bloodcurdling screams! God it ROCKS!

Cool. I think I need to learn more about The Who.


They were a great band. Lots of revolutionary stuff in their recordings. My first musical love.

That was entirely too much water-noise to start off the song. Good thing it improves from there...


Au contraire - I really enjoyed the sound of the surf and the rain. I only wish it was longer.

Get the whole album and listen to it end to end, and then you'll understand the water noise...
