Initially...
I always felt this chick was just another in a long line of "Great White Musical Hypes".
I wasn't impressed with her first few CDs.
But ADELE's "30" in the BEST Pop work I've heard this year.
Shit's a musical, technical and songwriting MASTERPIECE!
Can't stop listening to it.
It's like it was produced by Burt Bacharach and/or Arif Mardin from those 60s Pop days.
With Dusty Springfield (who I constantly compared her to) and Barbara Streisand.
But with Modern Pop sensibilities.
Fellow Old Heads know who and what I'm talking about.
THIS is my Shit right here.
The piano riff and the way the drums/bass come in quietly at 3:27.
And I'm a sucker for backing choirs.
Kelvin Gastelum's walkout music earlier this month ... love that opening to the song ...
Do you see Quincy Jones directing the orchestra? Frank Sinatra said this was when he thought he sounded the best.Yup....
The Chairman of the Board

I don't know the name of this song. It's a guitar solo during a fuck scene in a porno joint. I'm going to log off now. I need to put on my Black Panther costume and paint my wife green for her She Hulk outfit. Tonight's Marvel Fantasy Night.
