Actually maybe I'm getting used to it now, but this one dosn't seem quite so glacial.

Maybe it's because it's more Barry White than the last two.

It really does need speeding up.

And all the tracks being two minutes shorter.

Track 4 - Jesus.

I'm a fan.

I own at least 9 Barry albums.

Probably.

IT's not really like BW BTW.

Barry would have at least three full orchestras and 110 backing singers playing on every track of this album.

Side 2!

Jesus…

I was going to say like the public perception of Barry White, but I forgot.

Spiritual.

Gospel.

Building.

A Jacob's Ladder.

This one's improved a bit now, now that it's started to sound like All Saints.

One of Curtis's lovely, gentle, soul-rending solos.
