@Florence, your post mirrors Exactly my thoughts for nearly the last 50 years. I love those same exact songs, I’ve referred to Sleepin’ As a dirge many times, it’s like reading my own mind. Last Time, I’m told, sold nearly 900k as told to a bud by Pam Sawyer. I knew it was top ten on the sales charts, but that surprised me if it’s accurate. My choice for a follow up? I would have to hold my nose, drop Stone Liberty and hope for the best. if not, “Love Me” but I don’t have a lot of faith in either.
What I don’t get, is why they would release two singles from an album that doesn’t have two singles on it, and only one single from the previous album that had maybe as many as four or five singles on it. I have no idea what they were smoking, but I hope it’s illegal by now and no longer in use. I thought maybe they were just going to crank albums out every six months with only one single on them, but after the release of sleepin’ And then no new album for over two years, I just threw my hands up in the air.
