The Blue Nile - Tinseltown in the Rain (Matt Mancid & Color Theory)

listen/download ➤ Hats changed my life. Back in the days when one would buy an album based solely on the cover art, a promotional sticker with two quotes drew my attention to the record. The first was from Phil Collins — back then referred to as “Phil Collins of Genesis.” I wasn’t a huge fan, so I glossed over that one. The second was from Curt Smith of Tears for Fears. I can’t remember the exact words, but one could not have crafted a stronger endorsement. So I took a chance, having never even heard of The Blue Nile.
