"Clear Spot sees Captain Beefheart pursuing his blues rock career he restarted with Mirror Man. This album is the clear peak of said blues career.

"Stylistically, it is another left hook in the bands massive discography. And might be there most quiet record in there collection.

"This album starts off on a stunning high with the opener “Always Together With You”. This encapsulates everything fantastic about this band. It’s comforting, spacious and soothing, while sounding triumphant and proud at the same time. This is followed by the rocking “Best Thing You ‘ve Never Had"..." [+] Reply

"Hmm, would you look at that. User SaulCortes1992 has given the album a 5/100 rating two weeks before the album is released. Looking at his charts, not surprised to see yet another elitist rockist user on here." Reply

"Oooh... I like it. Feist isn't happy. She's developed an edge. This album is reflective and retrospective. She's looking back on failure and conflict.
