Mitzo, how could you leave off Rooms on Fire?!?

I never cared for Whole Lotta Trouble, in fact I find it annoying. But the podcast almost changed my mind- the lyrics are pretty good, and her vocal delivery is hilariously campy, but those horns or whatever, just too much.

If Rooms on Fire replaced Whole Lotta Trouble, and if Two Kinds of Love replaced Juliet, then I would agree 100% with your list. I also think side one is probably the best and most consistent work of Stevie’s career. Side two sinks the album, with the exceptions of Alice, Doing the Best I Can, and I Still Miss Someone.
