The Commercial Album
For the Velvets, it's obviously this one...
Who else can you think of that was normally uncommercial, that did have that one that radio, the public, or most folks got?
the Eagles suck.

The Captain's stab at the commercial market - most don't like it here but I do. Follow up Bluejeans and Moonbeams was also another commercial stab but then he returned back to what he proabably did best.

Though you could argue that his most 'out there' stuff ended up being his most commercial.

Strange, innit Nathan... although it was definitely more accessible than Sextant (which came before it). Sextant is tough (but rewarding) listening, probably Herbie's weirdest, most "out there" stuff.
