Should I get this controversial album or not? I'm hoping to start a conversation about the album rather than to comment on it.

Of the 2 CD's the second one is the reason for getting it.Brilliant stuff.The first half of the album is very hit and miss.Still in my top twenty albums of all time though despite the weak moments.
