**** I've always found Bruce to be one of the best at telling a story through song, and that continues here. For the most part he stays faithful to his classic, awesome sound, but he doesn't really do anything too interesting with it here. This album is full of solid, decent, traditional Bruce tracks, but nothing really special. This album had the tough task of following up the brilliant "Magic" and was a bit of a disappointment after that. I'd probably like it more than I do if it hadn't had to follow "Magic" but at the same time, I'd also probably have given it less of a chance had "Magic" not been so amazing. |
