Must suck not being able to disagree without patronizing.

if all of his 70s output was on par with closing time you might be onto something, but as it stands, nah

Heart of Saturday Night is AOTY 1974

i mean i like that one, but it always struck me as a slightly inferior closing time

You're wrong because on most of his albums he includes songs that would fit into this era. Only ones I can think of is most of his 90's output. Even if it's weirder he never really lost that character. Nighthawks is a GOAT live album though.

You're honestly right. Alice is like the perfect storm of both sides.

I myself feel that all of his jazzy stuff is pretty consistent besides heartattack and vine and foreign affairs. I actually like Small Change as much as I like Closing Time, too

Nighthawks is such a comfy album my dude
