“Third World Man” is a great song

whats the consensus behind ¨Two Against Nature¨? I still remember when that album came out.

TAN is very good but I don't like the sequencing and I abhor "Cousin Dupree"

I only listen to it with this tracklist:

1. Jack of Speed
2. Almost Gothic
3. Gaslighting Abbie
4. What a Shame About Me
5. Two Against Nature
6. Janie Runaway
7. Negative Girl
8. West of Hollywood

It's probably their smoothest and slickest work - the inevitable Sophisti-Pop endpoint their '70s Soft Rock was always leading to. I think the songwriting is really beautiful, too - the "here come those Santa Ana winds again" beat in "Babylon Sisters", for instance, evinces just how totally they had mastered their craft by that point.
I totally agree with that. I just can’t get into all the tunes. I can’t stand Babylon Sisters, the title track or My Rival. Time Out Of Mind is the only one I truly love. The others are ok. I like the outtakes more than most of the songs on the album. Second Arrangement and The Bear are great songs and I’d much rather they be on the album.
What bugs you about BS? That and "Third World Man" are my two favorites on the album and, I think, two of the best songs they ever recorded.

I don’t care for the music at all. The lyrics are good but if I can’t engage with the music, there’s no point.

Nice. Jack of Speed is probably their best post-Gaucho track. Godwhacker is pretty damn good tho.

Peg is so groovy. I just love all those little things the guitars are doing in the song.

Im hooked with Aja. The drums and groove of Black Cow just puts me on a good mood.

What's the relationship between Steely Dan and Iron Maiden like? I imagine pretty cold.
