Friday night, I am spinning Kill To Get Crimson right now, and Boy sounds it good! Nearly forgot how good as an album this was. On many ways a perfect MK solo album. Maybe that's why my expectations are so high.

Kill To Get Crimson? I remember criticism on the forum that it was a boring album  :)
I know the way I can see by the moonlight
Clear as the day
Now come on woman, come follow me home

I mean.
I like KTGC. Its a bit boring? Yes.
But, in comparison to new material, KTGC is a f*king masterpiece.

One can argue that all of Mark's albums before 1978 sucked. Because they never existed :lol This is why I'm talking about the natural path of a creative artist. You may notice a lot of creative folks do their best work when they are young. Paul Simon composed "The Sound Of Silence" when he was 21 or whatever. Mark wrote "Brothers In Arms" at 30 (I believe it was written long before it was recorded). Strauss composed Also sprach Zarathustra at 32, Rachmaninoff... You can go on.

You start with nothing, then you have everything, and you end up having nothing again. So I'd drop any expectations at all, MK's new stuff can't be groundbreaking.

Not only that, it's experimental. Half of the album is waltzes, and the other half is played with a pick. This album is waltzing MK reaching for Hank Marvin's sound.
