Title: George at his best
Review: I was really afraid that this album was going to be boring, jazz crap like "Older" was. On first listen, I was afraid I was right, but after several listens not only did it start to grow on me but I became downright addicted to it. Those who say the songs lack "groove" must need their hearing checked. Those who say it's not as "lyrically satisfying" as his other CDs have not listened to it more than once. It takes a while for all the layers to reveal themselves to you. George has so much going on in background it's almost mindboggling how his genius works.My opinion is that this is the best overall GM CD since Faith. And the best part is that he left all of the jazzy crap totally off this one!Oh, and I just don't get those who don't like Shoot The Dog. Put the headphones on and listen to the world he's created in that one song - - amazing stuff. Like I said....the whole CD takes repeated listening for it to sink in. But it's well worth it when it does!
