And, I hated the trumpet addition to "Goodbye to Love." The trumpet can be a mournful sounding instrument, but in this particular place it sounds triumphant and joyful, and it just wrecks the overall mood. It's a nice performance on the instrument for sure, but it's not a good addition to this amazing song. I'd be curious what the original session guys would think of it.
Mike, this is a great explanation of the extreme reaction I had to Goodbye to Love. It sounds triumphant and joyful right before the guitar begins to growl.
I don't want to overshadow however the amazingness of so much of this album, though, by pointing out a couple of the places I thought the decisions were wrong.
