WHEN DECENT bands get a<br />
slagging, it's because the<br />
band knows it should and<br />
could have done better. The<br />
Cure's 'The Top' album is a<br />
prime example (sure 'The<br />
Top' sounds like Mozart<br />
compared to the gaudy<br />
rubbish produced by<br />
Kajagoogoo, Duran Duran ...<br />
ad infinitum) but compared<br />
to earlier albums, it's not up<br />
to much.<br />
Barron's review may have<br />
been a bit rough but he was<br />
right. Why? Well, because Mr<br />
Smith is a bit of an arrogant<br />
sod because he knows he<br />
could have done better, but<br />
doesn't really make an effort<br />
because the album will sell<br />
well enough.<br />
One day, darling Robert<br />
will make an album to rank<br />
with 'Seventeen Seconds'<br />
(but only when somebody<br />
discreetly slips him some<br />
lipstick remover). In his own<br />
words (via 'Pornography' ) I<br />
must find a cure . . .<br />
