It does. One of two reasons that this isn't a 3.0 for me.

I'm not gonna say what #2 is because I'll get bullied for having bad taste. I'm a self-preserving organism, y'see.

Ah, so it's either Lonesome Cowboy Bill, I Found a Reason, or Train Round the Bend. That three-track run is the reason this isn't higher for me, actually.

"Ah, so it's either Lonesome Cowboy Bill, I Found a Reason, or Train Round the Bend."

It is neat, and those other two are definitely worse. But those three are probably my three least favorites on this. Still, none of them "bad" by any means, just in the context of the rest y'know.

Sweet Jane is the best crimson and clover cover of all time.

The lack of VU love is saddening.

I dislike Velvet Underground. On my recent late 60s run through, I went through the other three records and came away feeling pretty unimpressed by just about everything they've done. Note: I understand that this is an unpopular opinion. I'm just generally not into that style of music (also see: Bob Dylan).



I like that Loaded is more straightforward. I just groove more with this one. It helps that I recognized the popular Sweet Jane cover by Cowboy Junkies, and later the Jerry Cantrell cover of Oh Sweet Nuthin' that appeared on the Cable Guy soundtrack (when movie soundtracks were a thing). All of the songs here are pretty catchy.
