Negative Positive
Title: Give it a chance.
Review: Okay, I'll admit it. The first time through this CD was disappointing to say the least. This is partly because I keep expecting them to return to their 1970's style and I thought "It's not here, dammit!" What's strange is that with repeated listenings it becomes very clear that their roots are indeed present here, along with a pleasant evolution of the band. You get the best of both worlds here. So if you listened to it once and are prepared to immediately shelve it after that initial listen, all I can say is be patient. Wait a couple of days and play it again. It only took me twice to appreciate this. Your mileage may vary. It's still not my favorite Blondie album, but my opinion of it has completely turned around since my first listen.
Is the review positive or negative?
