When me and Walrus saw them last week they opened with it

Wombi

all albums I've heard for once.

Rolling Stones' debut is comparable to Please Please Me (though nowhere near as good). A debut album with plenty of covers but not a very good indicator of how great a group they would become.

This Is A Long Drive... is fantastic. I was actually surprised by how good it was. Stylistically it's quite similar to The Lonesome Crowded West. I need to hear this one again because I remember thinking it might be my favourite of theirs.

Mule Variations actually did nothing for me...sadly. After a masterpiece like Bone Machine I was expecting more.
