I love the way this album blends together. It's more like one constant stream than 13 individual songs. As a concept album, the subject matter of divorce is a little, erm, odd. It must have been a particularly painful divorce to stretch to a double album. The album covers is bonkers. Coked up Marv at his best.

If this is one of Marvin's best, I don't want to hear the worst. I love Marvin's voice, but I found this quite bland and a bit drawn out, not just the fact that it is a double album, but also the songs themselves. If I had to sum it up, I'd say self-indulgent soft soul. I skipped a few tracks to get to A Funky Space Reincarnation. With that title it *couldn't* disappoint. Right? Wrong, sadly.
