January 1 1982

Shadows
Genre: singer songwriter
2.25 out of 5
Is it weird that we include Gordon in this project? I mean, his contribution to “rock” expired almost before it started, right?
There are a gazillion singer songwriters who populate alcoshantys on every seaboard. I feel like he just lucky at a time when everyone was giving this stuff up.
And then I think, you know what. Give him a thesaurus and he might be The Decembrists.
Gordon is one of them heartbroken troubadours. Always searching for love. Or musing on it.
But he isn’t all that interesting.
I know that some people think this album is a high water mark for Gordon but I think he’s an aged cow that should be put to pasture.
Next.
