★★☆☆☆ = Eh, fine
What’s it sound like?
70s radio rock sung with slight theatric and whimsy.
Thoughts
A few good tracks but overall not really my style, too soft and focused on lyrics that didn’t do it for me. The rockier tracks like Macbeth and Graham Greene are good but that’s all I really left with.

★★★☆☆ = Good!
What’s it sound like?
Electric Blues-jazz driven by guitar
Thoughts
Side 1: the freedom suite 1 and 2 tracks are great blues; raw, fast and dirty.
Side 2: Green dolphin street kicks things off with a clarinet solo, setting the pace with calmer standards that were just OK.

I like his style but the use of strings watered down the funk.
