I don't think Street Angel could ever be made into a perfect record. If certain songs were swapped out (and the Dylan cover is one of the best things on there, IMO), it would certainly be made better, tho.
Absolute duds on SA for me are:
- Unconditional Love (co-dependent lyrics, boring music & production)
- Maybe Love Will Change Your Mind (more co-dependent lyrics)
- Jane (just...no)
Kick It is marginal. Dump those four and replace them with Inspiration, God's Garden (neither are my favorites, but both are far superior to UL and MLWCYM), If You Were My Love - maybe tack on Thousand Days - and it's a much better album, but still far from perfect. It's simply not that great a collection of songs.
