This was a rough first listen to me and also one of few albums i didnt enjoy much on first listen. Very glad i came back, 2nd listen was significantly better. Jumped my rating from 65 to 85.

This is a perfect album with great variety and consistency. The jazz elements perfectly compliment Billy's storytelling which while not as raw and touching as on the Stranger are still effective in setting the mood of the record.

Best: Follow God
Decent: Every Hour
Trash: Everything else

Burn, Stars and Carnival are good, the other 12 songs are straight garbage
