I'm thinking of Meat Loaf this morning, as I do most mornings. Something about that big, sweaty guy I love.

The first album Mr. Loaf ever released was:

1. Bat Out of Hell

2. Stoney and Meatloaf

3. Meat Loaf Soul

4. Freaky and Meatloaf

or

5. Blood on the Tracks

Losers get leftovers, winners get meat loaf.

Naturally.

Stoney and Meatloaf, 1971. Came out the same year I did, as a matter of fact.

I've always liked Bat out of Hell. I'll go with that one.

Also, I just saw Christine, the scary car movie, which sort of makes me think of bats and hell.
