Bit of respect, no? Why bring up a bad last album when apparently he made so much good music? Maybe you just want to balance the thread out, thinking too many people are saying how great he is, but you know, the guy's passed on, so this is not the thread to be critical of him, is what I think.

My point goes back to something fluffy said early and I'm just pointing out that some of the same people in this thread were critical of him and his work at one point in time.
It's not like I am mentioning this out of left field to put down someone that has just passed. This is not a funeral. It is thread on an online forum that his family members will most likely never see and even if they did I bet they wouldn't care as much what some random stranger says as you do.
