Reminds me that I quite liked Billion Dollar Babies

BDB is ok, but from the inside is 100x better.
It was written with Bernie Torpin, and is about (loosely)Alice's time spent in a secure hospital.

Almaz by Randy Crawford gets a lot of women getting emotional and I think it’s an Oboe in the background that hits the nerves.

It’s about an Alcatrean immigrant couple that lived next to RC and the lady Almaz having a love that women never have.

Unfortunately that song is forever tainted for me by a mis-heard lyric. I always thought I heard...

“She’s young and tender,
A real-life bender”

 

Palace since 19 August 1972. Palace 1 (Tony Taylor) Liverpool 1 (Emlyn Hughes)

Interesting. Cooper's output is a mixed bag. I like BDB as it was produced by Bob Ezrin who also did Kiss/'Destroyer', which is one of my favorite rock albums.
I think you can pick some good tracks from most Cooper albums but I have never seen him as consistent. I must listen to 'From The Inside' again.

Otis Redding -- Remember Me
Elvis -- Always on My Mind
Nick Cave -- Into My Arms

The first two I remember listening to with my mum in the kitchen. :.-(

The third one will twang on the soul of any right-minded human being. It is such a beautiful piece of music.

 

If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.
