I'm not going to pretend that I can make much of anything out of this. But I do note that Christgau gave this the equivalent of 9.5 (high A), and so did Tom Hull, since he gave it a full A and put it on his 1000 best albums list. Anyway, I have this on vinyl, have listened to it more than half-a-dozen times over the decades without experiencing a second of real pleasure, and am shelving it. For better minds than mine. Ask me to play it next time you're over at my place and I will. Maybe you can explain it to me.
