But , I liked "More Fun" better , still , which may not be the popular consensus. Maybe it's the "Road To Ruin" of X records , but ,like The Ramones , I still maintain you can't go wrong with the first four albums....I saw X ,for the first time , at the tail end of '83 (With Circle Jerks opening.).
