Listening to it now...
Just listened to his first two albums, My Aim is True and This Year's Model, the latter clearly building from the former and set the stage for Armed Forces and Get Happy!!! which I've heard before and are rollickin', high-octane pop/rock masterpieces. It's crazy how different the sounds in those first four are to I Want You. His vocals are so much more prominent in the mix, everything he'son , at least in the 70's, he is extremely expressive, but having the music so much further in the background brings out every little contortion. It'll be interesting to see if this is where he goes, since this song is from an album 15 years after My Aim is True. I will say, I would not have wanted this song to have been recorded for me. It's certainly on the edge...
