Earlier or later writings better?

I don't think it's anywhere near as good as any of the material on Bella Donna, and I can't even say that I really like every single song on that album. I agree that "Trouble in Shangri-La" is just as good (though I would've preferred the same production on that one as the Bella Donna songs), but I also think TISL is an anomaly these days.

"****ty piece of crap..."
I agree that "Trouble In Shangri-La" is an anomaly, much stronger than most of her recent work. I also dislike the production on the Trouble In Shangri-La album, too cold--like they stripped the material of something.

I just know that someone is waiting to pounce on the fact that I like Rock A Little and have the gumption to diss the production of Trouble In Shangri-La. It's just my taste...I could eat "Sister Honey" all up, I love it that much...

Anyway, thanks Hillary!
