WAYGTD, on the other had, apart from the couple of tracks i never liked at all (fools like us & the one with just the piano) was a slow burner and continues to be a grwer for me. whatever toogood did personality wise the production on it is brilliant, and what bit of guitar that is there (and it is all over the place even if a bit low) is practically perfect. Great albums have their own personality (ok i'm going up my arse here a bit, sorry) but this is more consistent than anything since. Cover's a bit crap though but fortunately with the advent of tiny cd artwork i dont have to look at it much. oh and is there anythign on that 'works' thing thats not on anything else?
