People are idiots, Leslie.
Also back in the 90s I would probably say The Blue Album but Weezer has been so unbelievably lovely for the last ten years or so I can't even listen to them any more.

Hey, look. Look, if- if you screw me on this, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine, you rat bastard!

Funny story about that album cover...

Wiki posted:

The cover is designed by Sharon Fitzgerald. When Kiss member Gene Simmons (who had trademarked the logo of a moneybag with dollar symbol) was made aware of the record he sent a letter to Geffen Records - who in turn gave in and sent Simmons a cheque, according to Simmons's book Sex Money Kiss.[4]

Jeff Buckley - Grace

quote:

Jimmy Page:
"Technically he was the best singer that appeared, that had appeared, probably, I'm not being too liberal about this if I say in two decades. I started to play Grace constantly, constantly and the more, the more I listened to the album, the more, the more I heard -- the more I appreciated of Jeff and Jeff's talents and Jeff's total ability to which he was just a wizard and it was close to being my favorite album of the decade. We actually made a point of going to hear him play and seeing and it was absolutely scary. One of the things is a little frightening was that I was convinced that he probably did things in tunings and he didn't. He was doing things in standard tuning. I thought, oh gee he really is clever isn't he ? He quite clearly had his feet on the ground and he said his imagination was flying, flying way, way out there, beyond, beyond. Jeff Buckley was one of the greatest losses of all."

Death

On the evening of May 29, 1997, Buckley's band flew to Memphis intending to join him in his studio there to work on the newly written material. That same evening, Buckley went swimming in Wolf River Harbor, a slack water channel of the Mississippi River, while wearing boots, all of his clothing, and singing the chorus of the song "Whole Lotta Love" by Led Zeppelin. Buckley had gone swimming there several times before. A roadie in Buckley's band, Keith Foti, remained on shore. After moving a radio and guitar out of reach of the wake from a passing tugboat, Foti looked up to see that Buckley had vanished. Despite a determined rescue effort that night, Buckley remained missing. On June 4, two locals spotted his body in the Wolf River near a riverboat, and he was brought to land.

He got poo poo on by critics because his music was seen as a novelty and had no improvisational elements, but he was miles ahead of most of the big acts at that time like Benny Goodman and Tommy Dorsey in terms of compositional skill.
