gerald's first thoughts...CD in my hands....

Well, Joe, I listen to it for the fourth time now and the album is really impressive if you're open for it. But I just KNOW that he'll scare 99% of the chiffons. They'll hang high in the curtains when they hear it.
This album is a chiffondemolisher. With that said, It is seriously a smash in the face of Reprise too. They won't sell nothin' , but gather quite some critical acclaim. This is the most daring thing he brought out since Go Insane. So Reprise had to swallow the bitter financial pill, but hooray for them to take the risk and bring it out. That's believing in good art.
