Bob Dylan-Love And Theft (10/10) Mick

Jackson Browne-Hold Out (9/10) Mick

i don't mind homages but give me a reason to care ya know? also i kinda hate tobias vocals on this album, lol Mick

Still Jimmy buffett but i've added JD souther and Jackson Browne. Mick

Ghost Skeleta Well was an outright snooze and looking at the genre. it isn't even metal anymore it's essentially AOR. and 80's pop I should love it but it lacks what's the Term? Oh ANY SEMBLANCE OF LIFE. it's so soul dead. Mick

most of this felt like they were writing for a bad anime. but i'm not really one to talk. i've never REALLY thought this band was all that special...... not a ghostie or whateve their fans are, lol Mick

I never Really got Ghost ansd this album just...........DOESN'T help, lol Meh? whole thing was rather limp dicked. Mick

i also think Thriller is HORRIBLY sequenced. like so bad for a hit album Mick

Jimmy Buffett-Changes in Lattitudes.....(10/10) Mick

Tom Waits-mule Variations (10/10) Mick

yo that's like a legendary line up. Ringo ALWAYS gets amazing players. Mick

i will argue lately Trial by fire is underrated. about a month ago it was all i spun. not saying it's my fav it's just really undervalued. As to Escape. you'd be right it is not my fav. i ALWAYS skip Don't stop (Glee officially killed that song for me) Your right it does slog. A bit but i ALWAYS loved Stone In Love Escape Still they Ride Who's Crying Now Open Arms I'll say it the albums a smidge overrated. Plus let's not forget.....Gregg Rollie over Jonathan Cain ALWAYS ALWAYS for me. Mick

yea the first 3 tracks are all BIG hits i personally wouldn't miss if they all fukked off. Your latest Trick is fire as is the title song. Sadly that's it for me. as you saw this album is near the botton for me. the production is so lifeless as well. and this album Ushered in mark just not believing in fast exiting solos anymore. Which to this DAY i miss. Mick

Another positive. They used to use this album in stores as a showcase for the new CD medium at the time. Still one of if not the Best sounding CD i own. no joke. Mick

funny.....NOTHING i love about them is really on display to me. lol Exept for maybe the title song. it's what i dislike about it they threw ALL the unique things out. Sayng all that negative stuff. what they were going for they got. in spades Mick
