Sandinista! could be an INCREDIBLE single album or even a very good double album.

I enjoy that it is a sprawling mess as it is--it truly contains multitudes--but if the goal is to make it tight and untouchable, a fair bit of editing is required.

It is the end of side 6(!) that does it for me. It has kids singing and dub versions that aren't very interesting at all. I quite like how sprawling it is, outliers like Lose this Skin hidden away, but I don't like pure throwaway.
