I love how Zerwee had such a "Songs from the Black Hole" feel (I honestly would believe any of those tracks were rejected demos from Rivers' Harvard days), and I come to see a year prior, Billy was doing this concept beautiful justice.

Rivers is a tortured soul. Imagine for a minute when he released Blue album. It was a unique album he poured his entire soul into, this young guy who lacked confidence in himself and was still in this adolescent stage of fear if rejection, and it blew up. Then he released Pinkerton, which had all of him in it. He finally found the confidence to release it before being shit on by critics. So what did he do? He went to poppy shit.

Always loved the Operation Space Opera version. But I got to admit you got that raw feel in this recording. You know, that Pinkerton feel. Their's was more a green-ish produced version. But don't get me wrong, that aint a contest or anything. I'm just happy I get to listen to whichever versions I want to whenever I want. Great job! Much love
