Goldfrapp
2/5
Seriously, two albums from this duo on consecutive days?! I'm still sleeping from yesterday's set! Seriously, though, this is music with a range so narrow an anorexic pencil wouldn't fit. Not annoying, just all the same - and much too wispy and soft for me.

Brilliant song after brilliantly written song. There usn't a bad track on here. Saw a writer say Dylan left the protest songs behind - not sure he got what was being protested.

Ugh! Pop jazz. BS&T and Chicago - hated the sound and the instrumentation then, still sucks pond water today. Not sure there was a good reason for me to listen to this - again. But I did.

There are a couple great songs here that we all got sick of long ago - the rest is surprisingly uninteresting filler.
