It is over.

I felt it was a collection of weak, unfocused songs being over-sung.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

I shall give it 2 stars.

When They Begin teh Beguine was Meher Baba's favourite song.

I'm convinced that all of ~~Hanky~~ Face Dances was structurally based on it. yes

And the Lifehouse Project.

And the Lighthouse Family.

Well, that was enjoyable. Nothing else quite as epic as the opening track and a tad generic disco in places but always sung with a thrilling voice.

4/5

It was quite the let down that.

Lots of elements that may well have been good with the right accompaniment(s).

None of which came together to create a coherent or even consistently enjoyable set of songs.

Not really even a coherent or even consistently enjoyable passage of music within any of the songs.

A frowzy, clumsy, uncomfortable, over-cooked and actually quite boring collision of performers, songwriters, producers and arrangements that amounted to something like a 'car crash' of an album.
