A simple test: "James," what's your opinion of "Lover's Rock"?

For real. I think Maj was a fan too. Love how the drumming changes from section to section. Reminds me of The Beatles "I Want You."
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Lover's Rock is the weakest song on London Calling, but it's also great.
