Came at this from a very low opinion, and my late 30s opinion was right , vocally and lyrically past prejudices were difficult to get over. However, some excellent tunes and the odd song that was very good. Like a lot of albums on this list I won't be listening to it again. But the process has given me some excellent albums that I never would of bothered with, so we ll keep motoring on
