I enjoyed this first instalment, and can't wait to see where it goes when he actually gets 3 or 4 tracks deep into this insanely awful album.

This is the best thing ever.  I absolutely cannot wait until he gets to 'Little Dog'.

Tom writing about Lou entertains me.  Between this and the Starbucks tweets I think Tom should start some kind of "Lou-Watch" blog or something of the like.

I actually enjoy this album. Does that make me lack for taste? I will own that. I do like the reviews, though, and usually enjoy mediocre and negative ones the most. I wonder if that is related to the soft spot in my heart for "ill advised" pairings like Cypress Hill and Helmet?

I kind of enjoy it too, and not just in a so-bad-it's-good way.  I am thoroughly unable to account for this, but please accept my apologies.

Like what you like without apology. Your friend, Confucius.

I will say that if Lou didn't sing (well...talk) entirely about mutilation, genitals and bowel movements I'd be a little more on board.

There are certainly moments that have promise.  I do think it's fascinating to dissect and talk about, if nothing else.

Tom reviews 'Little Dog'.  http://www.lowtimespodcast.com/tom-meets-lulu-part-eight/ (http://www.lowtimespodcast.com/tom-meets-lulu-part-eight/)

I don't want to brag but I think the "someone on Twitter" might have been me.  I'm weirdly proud.
