Had R.E.M. been mugged in the studio by Motorhead, it would sound something like Husker Du's 1986 major-label debut 'Candy Apple Grey'. Thirty-seven minutes of abrasive guitars, memorable hooks and zero concessions to mass appeal. The night before the Daydream Nation. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOJ6...
Wait is that the same world in which "Questioningly" was the 9th consecutive Number One smash hit by the Ramones? (She's the One stalled out low in the top ten; "Howling at the Moon" was their 14th and final Number One). I love that world.
