 | | They only made one "truly" great album (ie one that I'd put in my overall top 100) in their career (in my opinion), but they had the good fortune to make quite a few very very good albums, all of which are quite recommendable. |
 | | And finally, the penultimate track of the original album, Good Captain Clack, probably could have stayed in the outtakes box without hurting the album, were it not for the goofy group harmonies in the middle without which I can't imagine this album. |
 | | The songs are all good, yet as an album, it manages to simultaneously succeed marvelously (due to the incredible richness) and, well, not succeed so marvelously (as they fail to, if I may bring in terminology from my chosen field, hedge against "tempo risk"). |
