I can prove to you that that is incorrect.

Two albums at least.

Neither of them with Pino Palladino or Mick Karn on them neither.

There's not a below par track on this album.

I don't quite know how to say this, there's nothing wrong with this, but I feel too young to get any enjoyment out of the perfectly fine melodies and lush if undemanding production....
