Default Tell ME About "Heros are Hard To Find"

So, I don;t own this album, but have a lot of the pre rumours stuff, and I really like Bob Welch's work, so I was wondering if you all thought I should put this on my Christmas list???? What is it like?

Much Love,
Ethan

It's a great album. Despite there being nothing of the quality of "Hypnotized" on here, I personally think Bob was at his best - "Angel" is a fantastic piece, as is "Coming Home". Christine's songs are all great too - you really see the progression towards her BN-era stuff. And those horns on the title track

Basically if you like MTM then you'll like HAHTF, even though they're quite different. What takenbythesky said about the "murkier" sound is spot on - Bob's songs are meaner, if you know what I mean. Why the hell haven't you got it already??!!

Actually, bop doesn't care for Bob Welch. His favorite members of FM are Christine and Stevie. Because he's a womanizer!!!

Although he does have Mick's sense of humor and style.

I've never seen bop wearing balls. Does he? Outside of the bedroom, I mean?

You should definitely get Heroes. It's the best Welch-era album, in my opinion. "Angel" and "Prove Your Love" are two of my all time favorite songs.



And can someone please explain the whole Bop thing to me?

Bop is love. It all started here, but Carrie and Michelle took it to new heights.
