Herculean feat. Yes, other than wetcamelfood, I'm sure no one, not the completest completist, would even want to do that.

I have all the studio and official live albums and comps, sometimes on three different formats, and some Green-era comps that were put together after they broke out in 1975. AND, I've listened to them all thousands of times.

Also, I have a lot of "guest appearances" on various CDs and comps...Looking at you Merryweather.

I tried listening to Time once. Ugh. I believe I was only able to stand about 7 minutes of it. Sounded like Hootie And The Blowfish. And no. That's NOT a good thing.

Actually there are a few good songs on there, if you're prepared to accept the different lineup.

'Sooner or Later' is one of Christine's darker songs but it's not bad at all. Also 'Nights in Estoril' is pretty good.

Of the others, I quite like 'Winds of Change' and 'Talking to My Heart'.

There is admittedly some sub-par stuff and of course Mick's bizarre spoken word track.

At least go back and listen to Christine's songs! And maybe Nothing without you - it's the one track that I think definitely has all six members of the lineup on it and even Lindsey's there as well, so it has a group "feel" about it. I can understand people's reaction to These Strange Times but I'm kind of indulgent towards it. I'm inclined to agreeing with a review at the time of the release that said he "almost gets away with it"

What was your reaction to Christine's songs from the Welch era, btw?
