Title: Illinois was DEAD on
Review: Check out the review below from a music fan from Illinois--he/she was dead on. First album (never never land), my favorite. Second album (this one) a disappointment. I barely listen to it, if at all. Some good songs, too down tempo, too ballad-y. I never thought I'd say that about an album. But the result is that by the middle of the album, every song sounds like each other--pass the sorbet! Some ambitious fusion choices (like Illinois, I did not like IF, loved Joni Mitchell's a case of you). Perhaps, like some good authors, the sophomore effort can be a bit disappointing, especially if we fans have some sort of expectation set. I would recommend skipping this album and wait for the next one. I still love Jane, though.
Is the review positive or negative?
