Now Pet Sounds
This album is a suicide machine!

What are you talking about? Pet_Sounds hasn't gone; Rubber Soul was just telling him that, as he's leaving himself, he won't be able to work with Pet on the project they had intended. That's all.

You're a ****, there's no doubt about that. I think you're probably even proud of it. But one thing I've learned is that here, as much as anywhere, ****s abound and if you want to breathe the same air as them you can't get your feathers ruffled too much. You and I have had pretty damn heated exchanges, and Frownland has pushed me to the edge on occasions, but I've responded to that this year with a kind of mixture of Zen and ****-you. It's the only way to deal with it. You don't matter, I don't matter: in a matter of decades people will be walking over my grave and wondering who the **** is buried there, that nobody leaves flowers, and you'll be the same, so what the hell does it matter? Sadly, some other people don't seem to be able to see this and it's now resulted in two members leaving. Really unfortunate. You could try toning the ****iness back a little, not that you will, but it certainly doesn't help. Now

I've finally managed to give this a listen, and initially I thought it was very pleasant and was ready to give it a reasonably high rating, however I did find that after a while the songs seemed to drag and it got quite irritatingly boring. Someone said there are different singers? Sounds like the same one to me. The closer was excellent though.
I have nothing invested in this: I don't know who Laura Nyro is, and I'm not, as you know, a jazz fan, so I won't be joining in the debate as to whether this is a good representation of her work or jazz in general. I really don't care. I can't say I understand where the vitriol from Hawk and, to some extent, Frown comes from, but that's their business. Anyone who puts up an album here risks it being discombobulated, that's the chance we all take, and as I said somewhere else (or maybe here) most of mine have met this fate. So I guess if you can't take your album being trashed don't suggest it. For me, I'd give this an okay rating of 6/10. Started well, got boring, ended well. That is all.
