In fact I feel the song writing is more complex here, the band experimenting with different structures, the songs often including several parts and tempo changes; the moods of the different tracks are also more varied – anguished on “Is it Me?”, bluesy on “Down to You”, cabaret like on “Melancholic…”-, there is more inter playing between the musicians who seem to have developed their skills, and new tonal colours like the slide guitar (“It was good”), the accordion (“When I’m weary”) and the harpsichord (“Magnetic Beggar”) are introduced;   WHY NOT CHECK OUT MY EBAY STORE -
