What do you mean with against your musical intuition? It flows pretty natural to me, after some listens, that is. |
Well, intuition is hard to describe. I'm not generally against harsh contrasts but whenever Wetton sings "Easy Money" it seems to me that the song grinds to a halt and has to be started again with some effort. Drums and percussion don't seem really well coordinated to me; I feel drawn to either one or another in most moments but not to how they work together. Also much of the instrumental part between about the middle and 3/4 of the song doesn't fit with what for me is the main mood of the song, although it gets there later. That said, some of this is also original and I appreciate it as a bit of a challenge. It's not that I don't like it. I just decided I rather play the game and vote for something instead of taking the easy way out and saying "all are good, I don't vote".

The Talking Drum for me - but it is rather churlish to pick out lesser tracks on such a quality album. I much prefer the 'postiive' viewpoint of more recent threads.

It's actually "Book of Saturday" not "Saturdays." While that is my choice I don't think it's weak at all. I quite like it but it's the least perfect song on a perfect album if I had to chose one.

harsh man.. though not a fan at all of this period of KC.. I'd merely say everthing between the two bookends is worth a pass. The start and finish is at least mildly interesting. Still... if not for Raff putting this on occasionally.. I could die a happy man and not miss a thing if I never heard the album again. Love is blind... Raff forgives me for my Willie Nelson obsession.. I forgive her mid era KC obsession.
Don't and never have heard anything really all that special about it myself. At least the following two had at least a song or two that got a big hell yeah from me.. but this one left me.. cold and sterile.. like KC could be before getting a healthy shot of life and energy with Belew.
but that is surely just me.. and a few of my crew of forum malcontents
