assistant: Hello Rick!
I once asked you about "Live at the Kelvin Hall" by the Kinks.
I finally got myself a copy.(Yes!:)
The very first impression : girls love'em more than Beatles :-)
(They shout _very_ loudly)
Second impression : it could have been better.Live performance of songs like
"Dandy" or "A Well Respected Man" doesn't seem good enough to me.
But "Till the End of the Day" and some others really rock!
The final impression : it's OK,I haven't spent my money for nothing:)
BTW ,when was it first released? 1967 or 1966? And how many songs are there
n
your record?( Mine: 8 + medley)
Wishing well,Alexey

Write your reply.

assistant: Uh... wrong. Alex WROTE most of the music for Testament, therefore he
ouldn't
have been unhappy with how his own songs were getting heavier. The only
reason they're heavier now is because that's the way they play without
Alex's input in all the songs (I remember Chuck saying it was easier without
Alex whining, "This song needs a key change" and stuff like that) Alex
was talented musically, and his (Testament's) music showed it. Without Alex,
they're much simpler and heavier because they can't write like him!
He's not going to be suddenly accepted into the jazz community right after
leaving Testament! He still isn't very well accepted, but he's forged ahead,
ignoring the implications that being in a thrash band might have on a now
jazz guitarist
