Good review.
One thing I recently read was the obsolence of albums. I'll see if I can find it. It's an essay how music and the the business model for consumers and studios are so different than 5, 10, 15 years ago.
The reason I bring this up, like Chip, I would review an album based on the project. The collection of songs. Today, that collection of songs have fadede away... To good and bad results. The focus is now on individual songs, then a playlist of the artist.
I'll see if I can find it.
