I take it all back
No doubt every one of you have heard me rail against Staple's new album "Of Truth + Reconciliation." This was due primarily to the fact that I was expecting to hear a rehash of their first release only better. What I got was a seemingly haphazard and wierd cd that just didn't do it for me. Upon further listening, I've decided that "Of Truth + Reconciliation" is in fact a great album and you should forget everything I said about it. It's different from the first in a major way, but it has energy of it's own. In particular, I like the tracks "Sound Of Silence", "Black, Blue, and Gold," "The Best Of Times," and "Final Night." It's a good album. Go Staple.

I'm glad to hear that you changed your mind. I really enjoyed Staple's first ablum but, as every band does as time goes on, it grows and changes. Wouldn't you say that the sophomore releases often are praised as the best albums but those who were fans of the first seem disappointed?
Old Staple > New Staple
But it's still an ok album.
