Yes. 'You Want It Darker' is strong final album, a fitting epitaph which I first listened to on the evening before he passed away, made all the more poignant the following day. 'It seemed The Better Way' with its sparse, gothic atmosphere, strings and ghostly choir is a very moving and beautiful piece, the spoken growl of LCs voice between the speakers gives me goosebumps..... ------------- Older than I once was, younger than I'll be .............................
