Was just listening to "Behind Closed Doors" today, the first half of this album is glorious, tails off a bit though.

Never forget that one time a decade or so ago when the only working thread was for a Canadian Zeppelin clone.

In any case found cached version and no evidence therein. Believe we lost seventeen days of history at the time.

Well at least a few people might discover Charlie Rich, that's a plus.

the titular song of this album was used in an advert by the scottish executive raising awareness regarding domestic abuse and has been forever ruined for me due to the association

Wait they used “behind closed doors” rather than “have a heart” for an abused dog campaign?

Ugh sorry not abused dog. I think I did I mistaken that for a US commercial

avoid the final dud, "pictures and paintings," a horribly misguided attempt at respectability.

this on the p&p version of "feel like going home" is dead on:
The failure is still there in his voice, but by the end, when the choir comes in, it's almost like he's being borne aloft. Like he's been forgiven for all the failure and he's on his way to the Lord despite it all. It's a song that never fails to move me, and it moves me all the more because it stirs contradictory emotions.
his last song on his last album, damn.

"Life's Little Ups and Downs" is one of the best vocals ever.

Just to say his piano playing on P&P is gorgeous. I'm still partial to his earlier material but happy to have a reason to pull out P&P for first time in years.
