Last night I encountered a group of guys who vehemently hate James Blake. I didn't think this was possible, but apparently in West London, there are a few. They claim that the album is vaccuous, and at the suggestion that his voice has soul- I thought they were going to beat me down. They also claimed that half the album has been stolen from his dad- which is just an aggressive way of claiming that because he refixed (completely refixed) an old song of his father's, the whole album must be some cheap immitation. It will take me too long to dissect why they're completely wrong, so instead I'm just going to post his dad's song and say those Blakes must have great genes....
