Hello PHlock!
I'm currently writing a novel based on Jimmy's 1992 box set and I'm wondering who might be interested in helping me critique the content?
I would like a dozen or so contributors, if possible.
Shoot me a message, if interested.
Regards,
Darrin

I don't think I have a critique of the set. I pretty much love all of the songs.

Understood. Thanks

What have you got in mind?

"Death of an Unpopular Poet" is not included.

What else do you need to know?

I'm just looking for some honest feedback regarding the content of my draft.

I’d be happy to help out if I can.

Do you believe Jimmy intentionally omitted that song from the box set for some reason?

I figure he was focussed on writing "Where is Joe Merchant" and switching from MCA Records and probably did not have much input and probably did not care too much about what was included. There are more than a couple of songs that could have been left off or replaced with others.

Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks! I believe Jimmy chose the songs on the box set for a reason, hence the theme of each disc. I'm hoping my research yields some insight into this since we don't have the man to prove affirmation.
