If you're keeping score at home, the piece on the previous entry aired here of Music Factory that was IMO really bad was called "Poem By The Sea". Not spectacularly bad enough to get laughs from, though.

Janis's first four albums are available on a 2cd set. There's some incredible songwriting, lyrics, and arrangements on those albums. Shadow Morton produced the first three.
