It’s not that he’s now a tin foil hat conspiracy theorist and anti-vaxer, it’s just that this album is dull. He takes what should be a thrilling set of soul and jazz songs and somehow turns it into a snooze fest. At no point does he seem to be engaging with the audience in any meaningful way and the whole thing just shambles on without ever grabbing me. This is a double album, and apparently only the first volume. I’ll take a pass on the rest.
