To be honest: I almost balked at the length of the album. But I decided to test myself and give it a shot. For the most part this is a pretty good album. Sure there’s filler to pad out the run time, but there’s plenty of tracks here that are fun and catchy. The best way to listen to it is a chunk at a time.
