John Henry has its 30th birthday tomorrow!

What are your favorites off this album? Thoughts in general?

Personally, I think it’s a crime Mrs. Train and Welcome to the Jungle were excluded from the final album. Still waiting for Superfueld Freaksicle. 😉

Also, the TMBG merch shop’s having a sale, including a free download of the mastered demos and 20% off anything with the code TMBGWORLD, if anyone’s interested.

No One Knows My Plan, Dirt Bike, and Destination Moon are all top contenders on this album for me. Though knowing it’s got a big milestone happening tomorrow, I think I will give the whole album another listen and see if there are some gems I have forgotten about.

A lot of amazing songs on this album. AKA Driver, Meet James Ensor, Extra Savoir-Faire, and End of The Tour pop to mind right away. I also liked it when Michael McKean recited End of the Tour on a Tale of Two Johns.

Subliminal will always have a place in my heart. Great driving song. It just rolls.
