Say a word for Jimmie Brown

I've been listening to Velvet Ungeround - Loaded a lot recently. I've been able to get into it a lot quicker than the other 2 VU albums I have, Velvet Ungeround and Nico and White Light/White Heat. Those are excellent albums, it just took me several listens to get into them.
I've also been listening to Joy Division's - Closer quite often. It was something that also took me awhile to absorb but once I finally did I really appreciate it. For the last week or 2 I've been listening to the track "Colony" frequently. Its just a great sound of beautiful pain, sadness and agony. Listening to Joy Division all the time for me is not good, however, it can tend to make me feel depressed. That's why I need to offset it with something like Hall and Oates to cleanse the pallette if you will.
