--- Sez Tony Rigby to David Marheine ---
DM> I remember having a dream that the Move had done some great lost
DM> superhero album and being disappointed when I realized it wasn't true...
TR> The Move's second album is called "Shazam!" - the secret word of
TR> power of some superhero or other - and the cover features drawings of
TR> the group in superhero type clothing.
Y'know, I didn't think of that, that's probably where the other half
of the dream came from... This Spiderman thing by Crack The Sky being
the other half.
_Shazam!_ IS one of my favorite albums, FWIW, and perhaps the best
recorded hard rock album before _Who's Next_. Excellent bass and
drum sounds, nice mixture of electric and acoustic guitars, and the
double-tracked vocal on "Hello Susie" always makes me wanna put my
head between the speakers and crank it up!
