I love hearing what other people think of the albums. Sometimes it helps me to see things in a new light I might have missed before.Martin Maenzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08640466353011569116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620417008960069715.post-3945349129734954392011-06-28T16:09:32.744-04:002011-06-28T16:09:32.744-04:00I owned the cassette version which included the bo...I owned the cassette version which included the bonus tracks, including the aggro mix of "Never Let Me Down Again" (recommended), "Spanish Taster" (a different arrangement of "To Have and To Hold"), and "Pleasure Little Treasure" (a song beloved by many DM fans, but one that I dislike intensely). <br /><br />"Violator" is probably a consistent better album, but "Music for the Masses" has some outstanding tracks. I recently rediscovered "The Things You Said" on blip.fm and can't stop listening to it - a very Kraftwerk feel that wouldn't be heard again until Alan Wilder's departure. As for "Strangelove," I personally prefer the more minimal album version to the hit single. "Little 15" almost makes me cry.Empopriseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06344839707203239586noreply@blogger.com
