I can see that. Sometimes its much better to not 'get' an album on the first
listen. A lot of my favourite albums took a while to warm up to. I like the
idea of the topic, 'albums that took the longest to appreciate' or something
like that.
The Marquee Moon could be an album like that. The 2 songs that I mentioned
are not just good, they have something going on there. That can mean that
its worth while to give the rest of the record a harder look.
