785. The Cure - Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me

I love formats - LPs, EPs, tapes, CDs, 7 inches, hell even the CS (cassette single), and I strongly believe that all formats have their pluses and minuses...

I recently bought this CD on LP for a couple of reasons... first, I clearly remember Fiona walking around school with this LP - she had no way of playing it there but she was for some reason carrying it around - and record looked great under her arm, with the mouth at blown out at a perfect size.

I was also curious to hear it as a double LP... as a CD the album plays as a kitchen sink of Cure songs, but as a double LP, with breaks and pauses the album feels more episodic where the mood swings feel more natural and less wild.
