It irritates me because Lindsey kept trying (and still does try) to experiment with new ideas but he was surrounded by people who were trying to drag him back down in line. It seems such a bizarre concept for a musician of the time to be discouraged from trying new things and lets face it they were hardly Revolution No. 9, they were still accessible. If only he were sounded by people who encouraged this. I feel like a supportive mother, well an incestuous one as I'm still inclined to bump naughties (a well spoken, mature, incestuous and supportive mother obviously).

Well, the Sara demo is puported to be without FM - a lady who sang back up on it said that was her on back up at some non FM recording. That demo is brilliant and VERY close to the CD cut. In fact, many like it better. So, at least Sara could have been a hit
But, in the end, LB was the mind behind Tusk and he along with the band and songwriters made great music - period.
