Agreed that TPO is a masterpiece of great guitar rock and blues. But I would disagree with you that Kiln House lacks direction. While it may be true that Spencer and Kirwan were scare ****less and/or ambivalent about carrying on without Green, the album they made is pretty damn amazing and coherent. It reminds me of the Stone's Exile on Mainstreet, or more accurately what the Stones wanted Exile to be. Spencer's tunes are amazing send ups and homages of sun city sounds, and yes, Kirwan's songs are excellent rock tunes.
