Makes sense.

Beggars Banquet is the White Album equivalent for the Stones: folk guitar, funny accents, fiddles, Mellotrons making strange sounds, psychedelic hangover in a roots context.
Not having seen it, I suspect the new documentary is the Exile equivalent for the Beatles.

it's hard for me to me to compare an album where all the songs fuse together with an album where all the songs repel each other like magnets, but I've never gotten a bad vibe from Exile; there's too much love in it for that, even if it's a fuzzed-out hungover kind of love.

Great post, Lily Dale, and interesting distinction between the two.
