Agreed, and I think that's why the album is so powerful to me. It's so balanced. It has an air of collective wisdom, it's the fruit of a long journey. It's a nod to everything he's been in the past, yet is still progressively looking forward. It has to be one of the strongest Mac member solo albums of them all.

My fav song from GOS is without a doubt Bel Air Rain. I think it's one of the neatest songs he's ever recorded. It's like an acoustic guitar tornado, yet it's utterly simple. The lyrics are probably the most revealing of his entire career, too. Great song, great album!
