    WACF just fuckin' exudes whiskey to me for some reason. Even the obvious in Take Your Whiskey Home to one side, when I listen to WACF I think of whiskey. The whole band sounds a little more drunker and loose on that album to me, specially Ed. Probably the closest CVH ever came to just out-and-out recording a boozy jam session. Specially with shit like Loss Of Control, In A Simple Rhyme and Take Your Whiskey Home, all of which had been written pre-1980, but definitely with Fools...

    CVH stuff, by and large, didn't smack of too much calculation.
    Scramby eggs and bacon.

            Agreed! Fools is so fuckin' awesome! God, those riffs, and the vocals, GOD!! What a great rock 'n' roll party record that is...

            "So there, I am, in Sri Lanka, formerly Ceylon, at about 3 o'clock in the morning, looking for one thousand brown M&Ms to fill a brandy glass, or Ozzy wouldn't go on stage that night. So, Jeff Beck pops his head 'round the door, and mentions there's a little sweets shop on the edge of town. So - we go. And - it's closed. So there's me, and Keith Moon, and David Crosby, breaking into that little sweets shop, eh. Well, instead of a guard dog, they've got this bloody great big bengal tiger. I managed to take out the tiger with a can of mace, but the shopkeeper and his son... that's a different story altogether. I had to beat them to death with their own shoes...Nasty business, really, but sure enough I got the M&Ms, and Ozzy went on stage and did a great show..."

                The Chemistry of CVH is quite easily formularised: 3 parts shit and one part pure diamond

                    The best VH album, period.

                    It's amazing how many people I see putting it towards the bottom of their lists.
