But as you say, it's all preference and while I wouldn't dismiss it as a bad album I would certainly not consider it what I would call a classic.
But then, what do I know? 
"Close to the edge" next... |
One song I wasn't really into until the volume got turned down was "On a Plain." The Unplugged version is wonderful. The entire Unplugged album actually has a very particular song about it. Ahem, in any case...some other classics I will direct you towards for the future...
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Blood Sugar Sex Magik
Queen - Innuendo
And, if it can be considered a classic,
The Killers - Hot Fuss
