CommentsRecorded and mixed at: Rumbo Recorders, Canoga Park, CA (MCA Records) Jeff Lynne appears courtesy of Reprise Records "That was a little bit more of a rock thing," Howie says. "People were dying to hear the Heartbreakers rock. It proves itself: when we put out 'Mary Jane's Last Dance,' people went crazy. Same thing with 'You Wreck Me.' My involvement on the Into the Great Wide Open album was not that much, I looked at it as more of another Tom solo record and 'give the Heartbreakers a little to do.' They'd have Ben play two notes and I'd sing some stuff and that was it. To me it wasn't really a Heartbreakers record." Tom says, "'Out In The Cold' was never something that I was particularly knocked out with. It was fun, but I was always annoyed that there were two songs that got played all the time on the radio in L.A., 'Out In The Cold' and 'Making Some Noise,' which I thought were the lesser songs of the album, really. But they rocked the hardest. It was this cold realization to me that, in the end, whatever has the loudest guitar and the wildest beat is probably what they're going to play. But I don't think it's a bad song. It has some good lines in it. I just never was completely happy with it. Michael's really great on that and we played it pretty well, but we've never played it again."
