I think DED is a terrible album. I bought all JM's records through the late
60's and 70's (Hissing and Hejira are my favorites). JM started going off
track with Wild Things Run Fast. Oh, it had it's moments but it was like she
was turning her back on her intense, introspective self which is her strong
point. When DED came out I bought it and hated it. I couldn't believe it so
then I skipped the next album(I forgot the name) because I didn't know what
to think. But someone told me about NRH when it came out in 91 and I have
loved the albums since. JM is my favorite and has been since 68 except for
that one album and the one I never listened too. I guess what I am saying is
put that album to rest. We all have our low points and the 80's were
tasteless and we were all affected in some way.
