The 1981 Listening Post - Donovan - Love is Only a feeling

 Donovan - Love is Only a Feeling


#528

By John Tommasino

October 1981

Donovan

Love is Only Feeling

Genre: Sensitive Man Music....okay, it's not a crime to have sensitivity....Folk, acoustic....

Allen’s Rating: 2 out of 5

John's Rating 2 out of 5


I really didn't enjoy this record and it's not because I don't like Folk and acoustic music. It's just because at this point, Donovan wasn't making good music. There are no highlights here. This albums only saving grace is that it clocks in at under 33 minutes. I think the only reason anyone would listen to this music would be to soften a perp up before interrogation. Note: The chorus of the song, "The Actor" would be enough to break the resistance of even hardened subjects. The only reason I can think of anyone wanting to listen to this is that they are followers of Donovan and are required to as completists.....otherwise don't bother. 


This is a bad record.
