"Brownsville Girl" almost redeems Knocked Out Loaded, but then I'm also a Gregory Peck fan.
Trans was an interesting experiment, and Landing On Water has some great stuff, including many poetic drop kicks into the greed-is-good Reagan era:
Cause the tie-die sails are the screaming sheets...
And the wooden ships are a hippie dream...
Capsized in excess if you know what I mean...
Another flower child goes to seed
In an ether-filled room of meat-hooks
It's so ugly, it's so ugly.
From the alley scene comes a muffled scream
And the siren wails while the system fails.
You watch the box and the video jocks
If you could talk that could even be you up there
That's why you need max head room
I'm just a drifter
I'll stay until you try to tie me down
Don't try to rescue me
I like to feel the wheel, I like to feel the wheel,
I like to feel the wheel.
