You tried to have them shackle me
Bring me in
Tell me what for
So I'd satisfy you, baby
You have won the battle
Oh but Daddy's gonna win the war
[...]
You use to say that I was a gorgeous hunk of man
That didn't help me baby
Ah, when you was on the stand

It is over.
That was dull from start to finish. Every track was in the same tempo, had the same vibe and could have been cut in half to make it a single album.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

It's an extraordinary album.
A wild, compromised, cynical as it is is soulful diamond in the rough.
I guess that it's inevitable that my personal experience with the album - thank you Camila, (my ex-wife) for letting me know it existed - is going to be profoundly different to everyone else's.
Also it helps that I love soul music as an a priori condition of of liking music generally...
All I can say is...

It's an undeniable truth that sometimes you really need to get inside a musician's mind and milieu to make a properly judged judgement.

Whoever gave it ★★ should:
a) be ashamed of themselves.
b) go **** themselves.
