I only have Lil Beethoven (since Tuesday) and Gratuitous Sax.

I assume Interior Design and Music to Dance are dispensible.

Interior Design is, but Music That... is not bad!

What's good about the PULLING RABBITS OUT OF A HAT album besides the fact that it features the great title track of the same name?... Well, it also features the beautiful masterpiece "WITH ALL MY MIGHT" which is one of my all-time Sparks faves... I love the way that song comes together... I love the way it sounds... The chorus is "awesome" for lack of a better word... Just my 2 cents worth.

Re; With all my might - when I first got the album (Pulling Rabbits...)I thought, at the time that this was simply the worst track they had ever done. However it has a kind of magical quality that creeps up on you and infects you. by the time I had the Heaven collection I had really grown to love the song, check out also the version on the 12" mixes album as it just gets better with those extra bits of twiddling. Has anyoe else ever had a Sparks song you thought was the pits turn out to be a diamond in the dirt?

Definitely! ''I thought I Told You To Wait In The Car'' was like that for me. I just thought it was a bit boring at first and then I saw them do it live and thought ''Hang on a minute, this song is amazing!!!'' Its certainly a great play LOUD track!

I cant believe ''Music That You Can Dance To'' hasnt got any votes! Its a great album, surely it must be considered the missing link between ''No. 1 In Heaven'' and ''Gratuitous Sax..''
