I Know My First Name Is Stephen
I know Lovelines isn't a proper studio album as such, but it was the final proper epitaph to their career, collecting the best of the remaining tracks from their later years, including Made In America and solo sessions. Now, when I listen to this and their first album back to back, I am still astonished at the difference in a) the sonic quality, b) the development in Karen's readings and c) the sheer ambitiousness of their sound. Could you imagine playing Lovelines to them in 1969 and saying "this is how you'll sound a little over ten years from now"?
It makes me appreciate their legacy and musical development all the more. Just compare a song like All Of My Life with Kiss Me The Way You Did Last Night. Wow.
