Ice Cream Castles is far inferior to the Time's first album What Time is It?.
It's less interesting, over-produced, and the musicians are not as good.
For you drummers out there, give a listen to 777-9311 on What Time is It? -
you will never hear a better funk riff than on that tune (I'll bet you won't
be able to copy it!).

The Time's first album was called "The Time".  It featured "Get it Up" and
"Cool Part One".  "What Time Is It" featured "777-9311".  Both albums are
considerably better than "Ice Cream Castles".

Would it confuse matters much if I said that I also have "What Time Is It"
and that I liked "Ice Cream Castle" better?
