Title: Controversy, schmontroversy..this is a great album!
Review: Decadent, depraved lyrics? Compared to today? Get thee real. This album is a throwback to the times when you bought an album for all the songs on it, not just one.Classics like "Dirty Laundry" and "Boys of Summer", and Miami Vice's "All She Wants to Do is Dance" are nostalgic. But, let me tell you I had never heard "In the Garden of Allah" (okay, I was asleep that decade), and it completely grew on me, so that now it is one of my favorite songs of the album."New York Minute" is disturbing enough to bother you subconsciously, and "End of the Innocence" is thoughtful.This album is what I would call a Jukebox Keeper (if you were filling a jukebox with the best albums throughout the years, which ones would you choose?), along with "Eagles Live", and "The Very Best of Robert Palmer".
