Quote: I don't think that part happened until Check Your Head came out. Paul's Boutique was a flop when it was released... Though it is my fav (tho CYH is definitely right up there).
It's the "Blade Runner" of albums: BR flopped too when it was released but is now considered a masterpiece of science fiction. Sometimes it takes a stretch of time for a work to be fully understood and appreciated.
Now think about the other stuff that was released when "Paul's Boutique" dropped. Not much mainstream music immediately released withstands that test of time.
