Agreed : I got mine yesterday and though I've listened through it
about 4 times over, it's not enough for all the diverse bits to sink
in. I do agree with previous posts that have commented on the
diversity (or 'patchiness' in the more derogatory reviews) of this
album, but it certainly keeps the listener on your toes because,
unlike say, Jimpster - where you know what you're getting from track
1 right through to the end - this is not consistent in genre or
sound. Which I don't think is a bad thing - it's certainly varied
and lots of it is excellent.
On a different note : could some of our graphic designers please
advise me (in private) regarding the semiotic relevance and
significance of the rubber gloves on the Plaid cover? I can follow
that there are two gloves (ie. 2 hands - not "three") and then
there's the repeat reference on the foldout inside sleeve of the
yellow rubber glove. Does this portray the sound of the music?
Must one handle with care? Is it corrosive / allergenic /
dangerous?
Huh?
