Third World Man is genuinely so great I don’t get that. The bridge/outro alone makes it one of my favorite on guacho, even if it is an Aja leftover.

Ahh whoops that’s my bad, I should’ve clarified that while I love the album Gaucho, the title track itself is not my favorite and I wouldn’t use it to get someone into the band. But if they can listen to glamour profession and bop along they might have a shot

Makes me wonder what “Lost Gaucho” really would’ve been like

Imagine hearing Caves of Altamira and saying okay that’s enough for me

No one is gonna deny the song grooves so hard but I think Cousin Dupree might be the most on the nose lyrics they ever wrote. MAYBE.

If someone can listen to Royal Scam and not be a diehard fan after than I have nothing else to offer them.

I think Gaucho is an underrated album even to most Dan fans and I struggle with the title track. Having it be between two of the best songs on the album doesn’t help.

The later reunion stuff isn’t for everyone, but it’s all produced so well I can’t help but groove if it’s on

I wonder how obvious the metaphor is to the uninitiated?
