"A Man Needs A Maid" is my favorite song of this album. And I love that strange orchestral elements in "There's A World" that you're talking about. For me, "Harvest" is his best album. It's strange that you don't like it. Maybe, like Abstract said, you should listen to it some more to like it. And, "Harvest Moon" is my favorite of his late works.
