    Out of my massive collection of vinyl this has to be the thinnest record i own, it feels like it might as well be a flexi disc. Sounds great though.

      Maybe I'm missing something, but I find this album stunningly boring. The vocals and lyrics are fine but the instrumentals are just so damn boring and lifeless. The biggest issue is the mix tho. It's like they just shoved all the instruments back and brought the vocals and some acoustic guitar to the forefront. Sounds like a wall of pillows between the band and the vocalists.

        Baby on the cover is Paul and Grace's daughter and subject of "China" song, for those too young to know or who missed it the first time around.
