  King of America was a deliberate step away from the ornate productions of his early-80s output. The arrangements are sparse, letting the songs stand without decoration, taking on a distinctly more "American", stripped-down sound. The shift suits him - this LP contains some of his most affecting and immediate songs ("Indoor Fireworks", "Brilliant Mistake", "I'll Wear It Proudly").
