'Behind the times' and 'broke no new ground' are decently synonymous in my simpleton, non esoteric ranting mind. Or at least they're not so different that they can't be linked, which I decided to do. And Gabriel is just one of the many names I pulled out of my poor, feeble little brain... Procol Harum is another one that came to mind, amongst others. I actually think you can trace more pop music structure to Mozart than your beloved Beethoven... but I digress, I'm undoubtedly uncultured and wrong
.
My whole point was there isn't as much originality and forward movement with
Go Insane as fans sometimes cite. I
adore the album, don't get me wrong... and it's aims are certainly more artistically pure than the other Macster's solo albums of the era. But again, all of this is wholly subjective.
Honestly, I post these David-irking threads so we'll have something different to chew over besides the 500,000th thread on "What does Lindsey really think of Stevie?" "Don you think they really love one another still?" "Should there be another Mac/Stevie album?" *Yawn*
I also play Devil's Advocate a good deal, in case you haven't picked up on that over the past decade. I like to approach things from multiple directions to pick at people's minds, and see why it is they feel the way they feel about certain subjects. But your superior intellect has undoubtedly figured this out long, long ago...
