The way this album starts... hook, line, and sinker.

But to be honest when I was like 16 I didn't really listen to it all in one sitting all that often.

Fast forward about 10 years and it became one of my favorite albums ever and listened to it everyday for like a month straight. The jazz, rock, blah blah blah words that mean music, fusion going on here is amazing.

A great album to listen to when on a boat.

Sounds amazing on morphine.

Olsen Olsen is what I imagine heaven to sound like and is so beautiful it makes me cry.

This still holds a very special place in my heart for being one of the first albums I had ever loved and shape my musical taste for years to come.

What a coincidence, I am just listening to this album for the second time in my life and I see it appears as album of the day. It's a late discovery for me; I have learnt about it thanks to this site.
I need more listens but I find this album interesting, quite unique, and I start to understand the hype around it, though I don't think it will become one of my favourite all-time albums. Who knows.
