Re: Why....
As I understand it, moby has been around for many moons, I only posted occasionally since 1998. We are not the same person, though his views are often right IMO.
I completely respect your right to prefer Vauxhall - it's a beautiful album.
I disagree though - Vauxhall has a few bland songs, especially "hold on To Your Friends," and Billy Budd, while a very nice little live song, is hardly worthy of a place on a classic album.
Quarry is perfect from start to finish. There are at least seven or eight absolute all-time Morrissey classics on Quarry, whereas on Vauxhall, there are 3 or 4 stand-out tracks, and a few less exciting ones. Beautifully understated yes, but I don't think it's as great as Quarry.
