Eh. I give it ... maybe ***. Maybe.
I have no idea if this is supposed to be any good but I just couldnt get into it. It's just not as good as SMiLE, and I didnt really get the talk-singing. In fact, that's one thing I never really get. I like singing, and if I want poetry, Ill read it ?
Maybe lame, but Ive kinda been into Tropicalia lately. I love the sound of bossa nova, but I love the story of tropicalismo. It was pure musical anarchy that lasted but a few years -- like two. The music is ALL over the place, but somehow it still makes sense. It's rocking but also smooth and cool, and this album makes the seemingly obscure and incoherent movement seem approachable.
Anyways, it's a really good compilation. *****
Also spinning:
Not very good. But since when does that stop me from loving things ?
Tired but wired.
Adieu.
