This is very very good. If you like the posies or any of ken or jon's solo stuff then you've probably got this already - if not, why not?
It's like all their stuff really, beautiful, desperate, quirky, fun, and most importantly - good!
I challenge any music lover to hear 'prequel' and not want to hear it again immediately.
Come on Ken, where's the new album?

Excellent EP from two MAJOR talents!!!
30 Jun 2003
Format:Audio CD
Jon Auer and Ken Stringfellow's "Private Sides" EP is an excellent collection of songs by the two former Posies members. According to what I've read, instead of collaborating like they have done in the past, Jon and Ken worked separately on their songs for "Private Sides" with neither one knowing what the other had contributed until the EP was complete. If this was actually the way that they worked, it is easy to see why these guys have been compatible band mates and songwriting partners for so long because their contributions are actually sort of similar. Each one contributes an uncharacteristic, but georgeous Country & Western-style ballad - Jon's "When The Lights Go Up" and Ken's "Ask Me No Questions", and two of the more uptempo Power-Pop style songs that we've come to expect from the Posies. Jon's "Beautiful" is similar, but not exactly like the Posie's early hit "Dream All Day", while his "All U People" sounds like it could be a collaboration between "Plastic Ono Band"-era John Lennon, and "Electric Warrior" and "Slider"-era Marc Bolan of T-Rex. Ken's "Don't Break The Silence" is a about staying out of the way of a young woman growing up instead of trying to be too controlling and mold her into what you want, and his "Prequel" is about a man who's woman is running around on him while he is remaining foolishly loyal. Both "Don't Break The Silence" and "Prequel" sound as though they would fit in well with the Posie's "Frosting On The Beater" and "Amazing Disgrace" era songs. It's good to hear from these two major talents again!
Can't we just have another great Posie's CD?

This is such a fanboy release if only there were fanboy's in the audience. They're just not that hip. I bought this. I listened to it once. Can't we just have another great Posies CD? The world is waiting for another "Flavor of the Month","Frosting on the Beater" and "You Avoid Parties."
like a messy divorce!

Can't Jon and Ken.. just stop faffing about and get back together already!! The Posies were/are one of THE finest bands around.. and it pains me to see the guys like this.. all mopey and lonely sounding!.. Jon comes off the best on this EP with 3 corking tunes of pure fluffy delight!!.. Ken's stuff is better that that on the 'Touched' CD.. but by god.. if you can find a record label to release your solo work.. then sort it out and get the Posies back on track.. we need them!! Who else are Fountains of Wayne going to tour with?.. It was indeed a sad time when you broke up.. right off the back of Redd Kross and Jellyfish biting the dust.. fate is indeed a cruel mistress!!
