I do think this album is more consistent and easier to listen to straight through than "Kala". But it doesn't have a "Paper Planes".

It has a lot of songs that are better than "Paper Planes".

^^^
paper planes is good but a) I'd rather just listen to the clash track (no rockist) and b) the fact that it's such a standout track on the album says more about Kala's mediocrity than Paper Planes's greatness
I would have voted 10 Dollar I think

I love the clash but that song is awful imo.

The original, I mean. PP is great.
The Clash song is okay but it's a totally different song than PP. They don't sound anything alike to me. So I don't really understand that idea that you have to pick one or the other.

Nicely done, man. Except 10 Dollar, forever my favorite, is languishing in the middle of side 2.

Sunshowers was the first track I heard on much music as a teen and it sounded fresher than anything I had heard at that time. Galang is hard to beat tho - the outro always gets me

Saw a tweet about the movie doc having been show at DC area Documentaries Doc fest (a day after the showing). Tweet suggested that having a familiarity with her music and career already was needed to enjoy pic.
