1001 Albums Summary

Time To Pretend is basically a generational coming-of-age track, and the songs that most know from this album are iconic for a reason. But the lesser known songs on this album didn’t really get as much traction for a reason. I can appreciate that they sound a little experimental though.

While nothing on this album blew me away in modern day, it definitely sounds like quintessential 70’s funk music. Maybe I’ve just heard too many tracks inspired by this album and it was the blueprint all along. Junkie Chase is basically the sound of every 70’s crime chase scene I’ve ever watched. Fantastic composition, and the band is incredible

Loved that this is a storytelling album, made it all really fun. It’s also very unapologetic in its craziness. I just wish I liked the sound more.
