The Legend of Tainted Importance

BLACK WALL wrote:We all know the legendary mythology behind the creation of one of Greg's most beloved songs, where do you stand on the version that finally was released? Some say that it doesn't capture the majesty of the original live performances from the early days when the Experience was just Olsen and Christopherson. I say that the version we ended up with was nothing short of a masterpiece. I'm also of the opinion that it was clear Greg was the sole composer behind the song. Christopherson's influence on TGOE has been greatly overstated, I know we had this argument on the old forum all the time and the war between the Christopherson fanatics and the Tuneheads is still a fresh wound in our memories but I think the time has come for us to acknowledge Greg's singular genius, especially with the imminent arrival of Travelin' Again which is the first album to feature NO CO-WRITERS which means no Berry, no Christopherson, pure Olsen.
