Yes, I was always a fan and always will be. I love an artist who keeps moving on, and he always does. The more you look at his work, the more you see. Those early albums have nothing to regret--the songwriting is airtight and original, and continues to be today. One of the coolest things about him--things that will become more apparent as time passes--is that underneath all the thick, thick layers of his personal style and ersatz recording techniques, there is a body of work that can be interpreted in completely different ways by other less stylized performers...and they have the legs to hold up just as well.
He ain't all style and no substance--he delivers the goods, all the way up and down the line.
