This Is The Time was initially my favorite too (though You Do Or You Don't soon grew to be my favorite). Can't imagine the album without it. It's Tango In The Night's younger, fiestier, crazier brother.
My heresy is that I'm not a fan of the schmaltzy old world charm of Say We'll Meet Again, and was bothered by its inclusion as the closing track on Solo Anthology.

I remember stumbling on OOTC at a music store. Because it got almost zero promotion or airplay, and because I hadn’t watched music television in a few years (had been in the Deep South in grad school, going to blues and zydeco bars!), I didn’t even know he’d released the project.
I brought the disc home, played it, and within the first four seconds I was hooked. I couldn’t believe how good it was! It still blows me away. Law and Order remains my favorite, and Gift of Screws has its moments, but OOTC is, as you all have mentioned, his greatest achievement. |

There’s a zany energy there that’s so genuine. You can hear the fun he had while making it. His songs on Go Insane and Tango are brainier, more self-conscious—and it sounds like he’s out to prove his genius. But on Law and Order he was just enjoying his freedom.

OOTC is a crisp, finely tuned, twinkling feast, but for me his greatest body of work is the batch he did after OOTC, the tracks released in bootleg form, the "Anne Heche album" if you will. Red Rover, Down On Rodeo, Wait For You (as it would eventually be called), Try For The Sun (a cover, but still), Murrow, Change Your Mind, Come, Say Goodbye. I know it doesn't count as we're talking about officially released albums, but this is the Lindsey musical era that blows me away.

I see it as Chapter 2 to That's How We Do It in L.A. A commentary on fame but for This Is The Time about being in FM in particular.
