Nope, not in the least -- however, their earlier records, ANYTHING GOES and
FEELIN' GROOVY, are much less fragmented. ANYTHING GOES is my personal
favorite of the albums, but frankly, if you don't like SECRET LIFE, you're
not gonna like any of the others either. (I can't really recommend HARPERS
BIZARRE 4, which is by far the weakest of the original albums.)
