You can't change the world but you can change yourself.
I only picked up The Allnighter recently. Aside from the hot photography, I have to say it's my least favorite of Glenn's solo albums. To me, it seems very uneven and dated. My reactions to the songs go to the extremes. The songs I like, I LOVE. The songs I don't like? Eh... enough said.
I'm still glad I bought it because I would not give up "Smuggler's Blues" (my favorite Glenn solo song), "Lover's Moon" or "I Got Love" for the world. I rarely listen to the CD as a whole though.
HAPPY BELATED 28th BIRTHDAY "THE ALLNIGHTER"!!!
Well, I have to agree that this is probably Glenn's most uneven album and is my least favorite of all of Glenn's solo albums. However, it definitely has some good moments. Having said that, I will have to say that the pictures from the photoshoot for the album are definitely visually satisfying - not that I'm shallow or anything.
I wrote a song-by-song review of the album earlier in this thread, but I'll go ahead and list the songs from my favorite to least favorite here. We haven't been getting much participation lately, but if enough of you post your list, I'll compile the results as I usually do. So here goes ...
1. Smuggler's Blues
2. The Allnighter
3. I Got Love
4. Let's Go Home
5. Lover's Moon
6. Somebody Else
7. Sexy Girl

Happy 29th Belated birthday to The Allnighter. I may be the oddball over here 'cause I love the songs on that c.d. May not be his strongest solo c.d., but it's still amazing in its own way!!!
My favvies are Let's Go Home, Smuggler's Blues, Better In The USA, I Got Love, New Love.
I've always loved his falsetto voice and his regular voice of course. LOL.
You came along and changed my life Glenn!!
Happy Birthday to The Allnighter! Gotta say, the pictures from this era/album are smokin'. I love Smuggler's Blues and Lover's Moon especially.

you keep carrying that anger, it'll eat you up inside--
MMM they are really smoking!!!! Love that era too!!! LOL.
You came along and changed my life Glenn!!
