It seems that most folks either love Naked or hate (which may be too strong a word) it. My general reaction on first listen: Yawn. If anything, my take is that it sounds remarkably sterile. The original album-- even on CD, not to mention the boots-- sound much more warm and alive. And I definitely think losing the snippets of dialogue costs the album. And I'm not convinced of the running order either. Like I said. Yawn. Still waiting for the "de-Spectorized" "Be My Baby."
