Re: (TV) The Blue Mask & Quine

As someone who actually likes _Basic_, I have to agree that the drum 
machine is _way_ overmixed.  For some reason, though, I'm able to get 
past that.  There are some real keepers on that album ("Pickup," 
"Summer Storm," and another one I'm blanking on right now come to 
mind) if you can manage to ignore the drum sounds. It's also 
interesting because the playing isn't necessarily the kind of thing 
Quine's known for.

Anyone ever hear the album Quine did with Jody Harris from the 
Raybeats/8-Eyed Spy (at least, I think that was the LL band Harris 
was in)?  Harris is another fine underrated player, for my 
record-buying dollar.
