i have a fond spot for "Wasp." Both for the song selection and the Utopia backing. Wish I knew the discission-making that went on previous to the making of the album.
I was disappointed when it was released. I thought the covers were a bit too quirky, except "So Sad About Us," which I love. But I've grown to really love the whole thing. I especially dig the the "easter eggs," like the opening riff of "Rebel Rebel" becoming "Hammer In My Heart" or the melody of "Wasp" becoming "Shinola." There are a few more I can't recall at the moment. But it's definitely a fun record.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PAUL!!
