from my library (cd)



Originally released with the first 11 tracks in 1985, then re-issued with 14 tracks in '86, then again in '95 with 5 more tracks, 4 of which are
outtakes of the same tracks on the first release. I did not even listen to those last 5. I hate when they do that shit. This is Robyn's fourth
album and his first with the lineup of the Egyptians. The album is a departure from his previous mostly acoustic efforts as a solo act. Also the
folk side was beginning to branch into more of an alternative style. Two love tracks for me but offset by four that are just too weird. Not sure
what singles were released as none charted here, nor did the album. I think Robyn had more success in the UK than he ever did here.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - The Man With The Lightbulb Head

Best Track - Heaven
