I think Small World is pretty weak and I thought Blue Sister wasn't that popular? Oh and let's not forget Paradise.
My favs are MSD, Ships, Rome and Goodbye.
Jet hated Blue Sister and so do I. Paradise is awful and yeah Small World just sort of wanders off....
My Favourite Tracks are Tango, MSD and European Female.

If a band like Radiohead had released Feline it would be like their greatest album. Yet to us

Every song bar Tango works for me. The last truly great Stranglers album, imo.

I agree that some of the tracks don't seem to work but the concept and production work on them all.
MSD is one of my favourite tracks.
Stranglers out of the box.

Coffee table music,as it was described at the time by one or two journalists.

I don't think they were slagging it off,it was just a description of the album.A compliment if anything.

A coffee compliment, perhaps.
