Underground 60's Soul Classic or Something Else?

There are two ways of looking at the Odd Couple by Gnarls Barkley. If you think of it as a long lost 60's psychedelic Soul recording then you'll be in for a fun listen. If you view it through then lens of 2008, then you'll hear a half-baked 40 minute CD that with songs that sound like they were tossed off. Cee-Lo's paranoia can be fun, but sometimes I'd like to know what he's scared off. There is no "Crazy" here. The first half of the CD is the best, channeling the same Soul sounds that Amy Winehouse does. By the end it gets tiresome, and at 40 minutes that's saying a lot.
