On Hootenanny thru DTAS there were 11 songs on each record.All albums have good tone setting opening songs.There are some throw away rockers,funny songs,ballads,pop gems,a cover,some anthems,some genre experiments.Was there a formula?The albums were great,do you think there was a sequencing blueprint and stylistic blueprint?Whatever it was it was very favorable to the band.It's like every song serves a purpose in the makeup of the whole of the album.I know,that's what it's supposed to do,right.

Good point, Dee. Despite some reckless behavior etc., I'm guessing the 'Mats were less haphazard than their (sometimes) reputation would imply. Let it Be, Tim, PTMM and DTAS all seem particularly well arranged and thought out and Hootenanny is just plain fun. |
