Uprise "She's Gone/What a Way to Go"

I must admit, this record was one of those holy grail things that make digging through piles of stinky shitty records occasionally worthwhile.  I don't even know how to begin describing this.  A child's dream of what rock and roll would sound like?  Bizarre production, saxophone soloing, digital fills.  It's all there, laying beneath beautiful poetry sung by the voice of an angel.

In reality, this is just a shitty record but I really love it and spend a lot of time trying to imagine exactly how this got created the way it did.  Maybe someone out there will understand the appeal...

I put the mp3s backwards because the B side is better than the A side.
