I understand what you're saying but I feel that's a really broad brush stroke of the album.

If you're looking for a track to test out I'd listen to "Never Going to Give you Up". If you don't like it after 2:00 minutes you won't like the rest. But give the first 2 minutes a solid listen.

I'm not a huge fan of the album overall but I enjoy Saadiq's ability to create something that sounds like it's from another era. An era that was popular two decades before he was even born.
