First impressions (**Spoiler alert**)

[Rail King]

I knew it, you won’t wait till the weekend
Thank you very much for your review, two reviews till now and both amazing.

Thank you; I'll add more about the second half of songs later this week. They're just as good as the first half in my opinion.

Thank you RK!

However I get mixed feelings about this album. I don't want to see a KTGC vol 2.

Then again, I'm one of those who like Corned Beef City the most.

Don't worry, it's not KTGC vol. 2. It's much more diverse in sound and styles than KTGC. (Whether that's a good thing will be up for debate. Personally, I tend to like very homogenous albums like Shangri-La.)

exactly my thoughts

Thank you so much Rail King for your clarification! Whatever this album is, I will love it like all the other Mark albums. And anyway, every new album by Mark is always a great event for us that we have always appreciated his music.

Thanks for your review Rail King.  The wait is killing me!

[Silvertown]

I think that KTGC get quite mixed reviews from AMITers. Some liked it a lot, some much less. Do yout think that this might be similarly dividing us?

This time, through the two reviews of JF and RailKing, make me not a good feeling waiting this new album.
Reading all with much attention, all words used, sure people loving MK's music like me, the impression is  that
 ITs 'never play' or 'little bit disco' or 'thing that not awaited from him' etc
Sure that will be song like Nobody's child where Mark do Mark or a new folk ballad like One song, but what I expeted from 3 years Is an album where can find beautiful songs like Sailing To Philadelphia,Get Lucky or Speedway at Nazareth...
Now, are in this album songs, better, 'GREAT SONGS' that can say is a MK's masterpiece?
thanks guys

From reviews JF and Rail King, I can not imagine Back on the Dance Floor, Nobody Does That and Heavy Up.

[GIUMK]

In fact, I too thought that Trapper Man and especially Back On The Dance Floor had a sound very close to the DS ...

That's the difference of interpretation between JF and Rail King. In the end you need to like it yourself

for Rail King and JF :
You have not named Imelda May, what happens with her voice?

Thanks

it depends on what is a masterpiece ? it's obvious that we all have diferent tastes
some will say that a song is a masterpiece while others will say that it's boring
so very dificult to answer to your question

I can't pick up right a now ONE song from the album and saying it's a masterpiece, but I find the whole album works very well in his globality

I LOVE songs like STP, WII, Silvertown blues, and (yes you can kill me if you want  ) I don't find that SAN is a masterpiece, but I find that Baloney again is one. I find that In the sky is a masterpiece. I find that submariner is a masterpiece.
But of course it's MY taste, and maybe it won't suit yours

So all I can say is that I am very enthusiastic with this new album, but I can't predict if you will like it or not. If I had to bet, I'd say that people who like albums like STP or Shangri-La should like this new album, in term of "logic", but maybe I will be wrong.
And people who love the folkish-scottish-irish stuff will be disapointed because there's very few on it

Sorry if my words are note very clear, because my english is poor
Rail King explains it clearer and better

You're right JF, this is definitely something to do with tastes and preferences, I think we all have a different opinions when it comes to music, movies, paintings, arts in general, the overall satisfaction matters, then, reviews are just one person's point of view, this could make me buy something or not though. I am happy with both reviews you gave us you and Rail King, and in the mean time, let's be patient and we will see.
