Album of the Day

Happy Days, by Catherine Wheel (1995): This is one of those albums that as you groove along to one track you think, "why don't I listen to this more often?", and then when the next track kicks in you think, "oh, yeah, this is why." It's one of the most up and down discs in my collection (outside of most ELP albums). Still, there are several really strong cuts ("God Inside My Head," "Heal," "Kill My Soul") among the weaker ones ("Fizzy Love," "Little Muscle" - who thought those were good ideas?). "God Inside My Head" was particularly appropriate as I read through the file of a client who is nutty as a fruitcake. Finally, it's hard not to like an album with a tune called "Eat My Dust You Insensitive Fuck."
