This album is very special to me. Its a fantastic album. But it was released the summer I graduated from college. I was moving all around and songs like Soul Drifter became my theme song. I had the cassette in my 1985 Pontiac Grand Am and it stayed in my tape deck all year. Listening to it really brings me back. Wrong was an incredible video that blew up MTV at the time.

The cover sucks. And something else. I could have done without “This Is the Time.” Other than that, I love a lot of ballads here: “All My Sorrows,” “Soul Drifter,” “You Do or You Don’t,” “Surrender the Rain,” “Say We’ll Meet Again.” This album has his best batch of ballads since Tusk. |

And that haircut. I never liked his Go Insane and OOTC haircut. Even in some Tango pictures he got that cylindrical haircut. Was he trying to imitate Grace Jones? https://stevienicks.info/wp-content/...er_cropped.jpg |

Maybe the best song on the album. |

As for "This is the Time", I prefer the live version, although the studio recording is more than sufficient. |

My heresy is that I'm not a fan of the schmaltzy old world charm of Say We'll Meet Again, and was bothered by its inclusion as the closing track on Solo Anthology. |

I remember stumbling on OOTC at a music store. Because it got almost zero promotion or airplay, and because I hadn’t watched music television in a few years (had been in the Deep South in grad school, going to blues and zydeco bars!), I didn’t even know he’d released the project.
I brought the disc home, played it, and within the first four seconds I was hooked. I couldn’t believe how good it was! It still blows me away. Law and Order remains my favorite, and Gift of Screws has its moments, but OOTC is, as you all have mentioned, his greatest achievement. |
