As someone who discovered Joe Frank in the 90's, part of my problem with the older stuff is that his style hasn't evolved into the form I am so fond of: a deep, intimate-sounding voice telling bizarre and/or captivating stories over electronica loops.  But by this time, his vocal delivery has evolved into a more storytelling style: it sounds like he's delivering his monologue off the top of his head, as opposed to reading from a page, and that to me is the secret sauce in his later performances.
