I own this, and I kinda feel the same way. There's a lot more going on than
in 'Sketches', but it doesn't feel like there are too many tracks that are
fully realized, so that again, these do feel kinda like unfinished projects.
Some of the tracks that sound really good (Train Jam, for instance),
sometimes go on longer than they need to. To that end, I think the album is
longer than it needs to be, and doesn't do a whole lot for me when taken in
all at one sitting. I think the best, and most fully realized track on there
is Friscobeat.
