3006313, Speaking of 7 track albums ... best Cocaine 80s EP ?!
Posted by Brew, Wed Dec-31-69 07:00 PM
I know Express only had 6 "tracks" but one song was basically 2 songs so it's still 7 in my eyes. Also The Pursuit had a bonus song ("Like a Fool") so they had 28 songs over 4 EPs so ... just go with it alright ?!

Bonus questions:

(1) Rank the EPs ?
(2) Favorite song from each EP ?
(3) Favorite song overall ?

Really wish these guys would still drop these gems on us every once in a while. I was convinced that this whole idea was gonna take off for all of them.

My answers:

(1) Rank the EPs ?

1. Ghost Lady
2. Express OG
3. The Pursuit
4. The Flower of Life


(2) Favorite song from each EP ?

The Pursuit - Nameless
Ghost Lady - Six Ft. Over
Express OG - This Can't Be a Crime
The Flower of Life - Fly Ass Pisces


(3) Favorite song overall ?

Six Ft. Over. That piano at the end is just too much.

Yeah... I hoped something more would come of it.
At least we got some of the best music of the last 2 decades or so from it.


>My answers:

>(1) Rank the EPs

I rank them exactly as you do, but I hate ranking them, because I like them all so much... plus my favorite song is from the lowest ranked one.

>1. Ghost Lady
>2. Express OG
>3. The Pursuit
>4. The Flower of Life




>(2) Favorite song from each EP ?

The Pursuit - Summer Madness
Ghost Lady - The Legend of the Heart
Express OG - This Can't Be a Crime
The Flower of Life - The Sun And The Moon




>(3) Favorite song overall ?

The Sun And The Moon (such a perfect musical gumbo... seriously never heard anything like it... the instruments, the harmonies, the funkiness, and it slaps in the trunk)




3006350, Haha yea it does but oh well.

Word I feel you on that. I love them all as well but at the same time ranking them is easy to me for some reason. But they are all great for different reasons.
