the love for new york is its one of his last good albums
but what makes it such a "good" album? The songwriting style is not much different from any record he's ever made, though it was much ballyhooed at the time as a return to the VU sound. Yes, he ditched the 80s production touches that he like many 60s rockers had fallen into during the decade. But Set the Twilight Reeling (recorded live in the studio) and Ecstasy also have VU-style arrangements and about as many songs I would call "good" as New York. I don't get it.
