HIMSELF (6/10)

Gilbert's first album released in 1971 in the UK and in 1972 in America. This was my 3rd Gilbert album and at the time i was very disappointed with the album. Some songs did not make much sense to me and the "intro" and "outro" should have been removed from the album. After listening to the album many times some songs grew on me so that's why i give it a 6.

I had and still have trouble listening to songs like Permissive Twit (although i love the title), Independent Air, Susan Van Heusan and Houdini Said. At least the American version got Alone Again (Naturally) instead of Susan Van Heusan.

I really enjoyed the music but Gilbert's voice on some songs is a bit annoying. Also something else that bothered me is the fact that the lyrics are not included.
