See you on the other side is still their best album for me the perfect mid point between the phsycdelic weirdness and distortion of bakers era and still before fully going the direction deserters songs did
There is something distinctly, almost obscenely American that separated The Rev’s sound from the mostly Britpop Psych Shoegaze of the time, they had a raw edge that set them apart.
This bring me back memories of when I first played Lego My Ego almost 30 yrs ago and that WOW!!!!!!!!! is still resonating in my head. Fantastic Peel session. Unreal !
Saw them live with David Baker, he played the opening notes on a stand up piano before smashing it up with a scaffolding pole, the most intense feedback of any gig I've seen. They kicked him out and became so bland. oh what could of been
There are not enough versions of Frittering on this planet, as far as... ; )
David Baker was what made Mercury Rev unique and special. They were just not the same after his departure
After his leaving, the Boo Radleys were far better than MR. ; )
Not really. David left because the band was changing, the band didn't change because he left

I hate bees in my truck, I used a fan to shoo one out last week. I don't have any steam.
