    have to defend one of those albums, a bit....a few duff trax, but "Along
the Red Edge"(which has Rick Nielsen and a host of other cool folks on it)
is a very, very good album for my ears.

I'm no big Hall & Oates fan. But *Along the Red Ledge*'s opening cut, "It's
a Laugh", is a song good enough to redeem H&O from any "worst-ever" list.
