Considering that it is a seminal album in my musical history, it's amazing that I've never owned a copy of Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo! (1978) until now.
I've always had a copy of the album for some reason, even though I've owned all of their other albums. I had a cassette tape copied from someone else's album. I had a CD burned from a CD checked out from the library. For that one, I even took a picture of myself for the cover, wearing a hat and posed much like the pseudo-Chi Chi Rodriguez on the album's actual cover.
So, as part of "Rocktober," I picked up the album on its re-release date and started spinning it's golf-ball white vinyl as soon as I got home.
I love every track on the album, but my favorite track is definitely "Praying Hands." It's such a subversively fun song, as well as short and catchy.
