So. Incredibly. Good.

Such a return to form by the Posies singer/songwriter. On a first listen it's a must have for anyone that has enjoyed his earlier work. Much, much better than the recent Posies reunion album Every Kind Of Light released last year which was I thought was just okay overall. A big thanks goes out to Timis for sending this to me.

The man as such a beautiful voice.

"Josephine" favorite track on the album so far. The album is great fo' sure but The Posies is still WAY up there for me.

I sure hope he'll play my town soon.

Here's an MP3 I encoded of the live session he did for KEXP:

*bump*

I can't believe how much difference having the original drummer Mike Musburger makes.

very decent. i lose interest after song seven though.

Yeah. It seems to bore me pretty quickly. But, I don't know anything about the background nor do I have any attachment to previous projects.

I give it a "meh".
