Haven't seen any recent posts on it? Apologies if I missed a discussion on this if/when it first leaked.

I'm thinking I need this. If my suspicions hold up it'll add to the "really frickin' old farts" on my Top 20 list.

After two listens this record reminds me a little of Billie Holiday's last record 'Lady In Satin'. It has the sound of a human being that knows their demise is imminent. The rawness and resignation in Johnny's voice says it all. What an amazing artist.

Definitely. I personally found it hard to listen to, in all honesty. The pain that's flowing through that old voice is absolutely imperative. Very, very raw music.

I've heard I-IV as well, this sounds a bit more ragged, in my opinion.

i just listened to the new Rapture single, and then put this record on. I then laughed.

It puts shit in perspective.

I bought Ok Computer on Independence Day '97, so records were sold on the Fourth as recently as a decade ago. Prolly still are now.
