I relistened to Spiderland a few days ago, and while it's a great album, I HATE the production! I love the idea of the spoken word/story approach to the songs, but what's the point when they are so buried in the mix that you can't hear what's being said?

F. Murray Abraham's tortured performance as Salieri in Amadeus is no better than the butt-faced sheriff in Laserblast…

Could Leonard Maltin be wrong and this isn't worth two-and-a-half stars?
