What was supposed to be a kiss-off alimony payment to his ex-wife shape-shifted into a towering ode to divorce. The maligned and complicated double-LP remains a candid soul confessional.

Pre-dating the voyeuristic tendencies of reality television by 20 years, Here, My Dear is the sound of divorce on record -- exposed in all of its tender-nerve glory for the world to consume.

It’s amazing how much music has been made about breakups.
