Rating the three Mescaleros' albums
Re: Rating the three Mescaleros' albums
Streetcore is double A-side single with 8 bonus tracks. The bonus tracks are good enough that I tend to listen to them more often than not when I put the single one.

Wasn't a big fan of Rock Art when it came out, but it has really grown on me.
Also, nice first post, Low Down Low!

YES, the bonus tracks on Streetcore are definitely worth it. They add a lot of value to the album, and I end up going for them more than the main tracks sometimes.

Re: Rating the three Mescaleros' albums
Good thread. I really don't know how to answer it.
Global is the most consistent album. Agree that the Minstrel boy version should have been swapped.
Rock Art has some good songs. I love X-Ray Style. I don't love the production and the I guess "modern" sounds on it. Not one song on it is really a standout though.
Streetcore is a little haphazard however has two of his stronger songs, Long Shadow and Silver & Gold. I wish the Johnny Cash colab was used for Redemption Song.
I may even say Streetcore to be honst.

Global isn't a bad album by any means but it is my least favourite of the three
