The message from Kenneth Abrams rises higher:
 CR> Yeah, I was hoping that somebody would get the reference.
 KA> Somehow, that song stands out in memory when I think of the album.
 CR> I've recently acquired some more Golden Earring LPs.  One of them,
 CR> _To
 KA> I've got one other, _Cut_, besides _Moontan_, but I tired of it rather
 KA> quickly. _Moontan_ has always been a favorite.
_Cut_ didn't impress me.  If you like _Moontan_, try _Switch_ and _To
The Hilt_.  _Switch_ is the album right after _Moontan_, so, as you'd
expect, there are some similar sounds and moods to _Moontan_.  The album
is not as solidly good, but I bet you'd like over half of it.  I do.
The same kind of goes for _To The Hilt_.  I also like _Grab It For A
Second_, but the mood isn't like _Moontan_ at all -- it's just a pretty
decent Rock record.
 CR> The other Golden Earring LPs I have are _The Golden Earrings_,
 CR> _Moontan_ (I recently found the original blue-feathered show girl
 CR> cover for $4),
 KA> Cool. I found a copy back in 86, in Orlando. Would have bought it at
 KA> the  time (don't remember prices), but I already had a handful of much
 KA> rarer  material (like Hawkwind, Groundhogs, etc.) and figured I'd be
 KA> back. I  was in the area over the weekend interviewing for a job I was
 KA> told I had  a lock on. In fact, I was told the interview was a
 KA> formality, a matter  of going through the process. Too bad a contract
 KA> dispute came along and  tied things up longer than I could wait and I
 KA> ended up hundreds of miles  north, here in Maryland. That's the last
 KA> time I've seen that album  cover.
Speaking of interviews, I'm starting a new job myself on the 25th of
August.  That _Moontan_ cover is pretty neat.  The woman stands mostly
nude on a mirror.  She wears large blue showgirl feathers, has little
blue pasties on her nipples and has some sort of blue cover over her
pubic hair.  The back cover shows the naked backside of some guy, and he
stands next to some person in a strange flame retardant suit. Weird and
wacky, those 70s!
