I'm actually backing you up on that. I wouldn't be so drastic as in naming them "mediocre musicians" BUT Chester and his voice are basically the only thing that keeps me listening to LP, even though the others (e.g. Mike) are of course talented in their areas as well. But without Chester's voice, I couldn't have listened to any song of MTM, I guess - instrumentally this CD was just too much of a disappointment. Therefore I'm even more grateful for DBS
I'm also a diehard Julien-K fan (and now DBS fan as well) and not so much of an LP fan anymore but I nevertheless keep coming on here because you guys aren't simply specializing on LP but also cover the LP-related stuff, and that's what I really like about this site!
