The Coral: Classic Album #4


I guess my best memory of this album, or rather a preview to this album, would be back in 2002 when Sadie, Jen and myself saw the Supergrass/Coral doublebill at the 9:30 Club. The Coral was brilliant that night. All gazillion members of the band put on their best hats and completely floored the DC crowd. From that day onwards I've been a huge fan of their debut eponymous disc. The biggest hit stemming from this album would conclusively be 'Dreaming Of You'. This song will never get old, tired or rusty, as will any of the tracks on the LP. The album was released FOUR years ago this week (hard to believe) and still stands as strong as it did on the first listen.

so this is another show erin and i went to, but didn't see you. or did we? my college years are such a blur.

i have this album but only gave it a few spins and then kinda forgot about it. maybe i should find it and listen some more. i remember really liking 'dreaming of you' even though it sounds like it could fit in on the 'grease' soundtrack. i hate 'grease'
