Sorry, but Under Construction is pissing awful. It's like a whole
double album of annoying "studio runthrough" bonus tracks. Gah!!

let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword

5 different views, all about the same quality. I would
score them all in the 7.5 to 8.5 range and consider
them their best, just ahead of those previous, in
between and after.
Octopus
Three Friends
Free Hand
In a Glass House
The Power and the Glory
