1001 Albums Summary

Very consistent and smooth sound and tone throughout. Beautiful song writing- a little too adult contemporary at times.

First half is a 5... if not for the awful Welfare Mothers, maybe the album would be a 5. Neil has some true moments of genius: Thrasher and Sail Away especially. But I can't really listen to tracks 7 and 8 without skipping over them.

I love this record! I'd been listening to it just a couple of weeks before while reading Bread of Angels. Is it perfect? Of course not.
