Title: Good Arrangements, Bad Singing and Stupid Lyrics
Product review: This is another one of those "lost masterpieces" that looks intriguing in the record shop, becomes more so as you read through the liner notes on the commuter train, but the by the time you get home and listen for five minutes, you know you've been had. How to describe this? Well, the instrumental arrangements are actually pretty cool, but the singing is mechanical and the lyrics are what I would call stupid. It adds up to an unpleasant mismatch sounding like a bad karaoke vocalist fronting a professional band.Also, the album cover is a little misleading. The front is just Judee next to a tree looking down, but the back shows her next to a tree playing a guitar. It suggests at least some self-accompanied guitar and voice songs, but there are none.
