[.ca] Monster on a Leash

if only for the song "you can't fall up":
i have not heard the rest of the album but i have loved the song "you can't fall up" since manila radio started playing it in the early 90's. i have just heard it again on joey 92.3 this morning. loved listening to it while driving the empty streets this maundy thursday. which prompted me to write this. i know you could hardly call it a review. more like an endorsement for one of my absolute favorite bands. sparkling in the sand, you're still a young man, etc. man, just some of the best music ever.

finally got the cd and ewww!:
in the 2 months since i wrote the previous review, i have packed my bags, crossed the pacific, and am now living in san francisco...just a bridge away from top's hometown of oakland. i finally got myself a copy of "monster on a leash." (from the $3.95 clearance bin of rasputin records!) it sucks. couldn't hold a candle to any of top's records from the 70's. yet i still couldn't stop playing the song "you can't fall up." and tho i still love top, i can't recommend you shelling out any money for this clunker. stick to the older stuff.
