^ Yeah, while it might be Ringo's worst original album... it's not terrible.

The craziest thing is that Memai is on the single next to Koko de kisu shite. When you listen to them back to back they are like chalk and cheese. Memai just has so much more depth and sophistication. The acoustic and piano playing together are fantastic. Was it just too far ahead of a time when she was releasing CDs everyone expected to be full of electric guitar? Only that single and Zazen Extasy, as far as I know were the only two performances. Am I missing others? |

Sakana is maybe my favourite song on SS. Maybe one of my favourite Ringo songs full stop. But it never really seems to come up in conversation here.

That's the thing about MM/SS... There's so much good material from that era that it's hard to talk about it all. I mean, Ringo made a collection out of the "leftovers" that make up an equally strong album on their own.

Heavy electric guitar are my dominant memory of MM/SS (admittedly two albums I haven't listened to in full for quite a while) so I was comparing Memai to the whole mood of the album rather than a couple of songs. |
