Although I have heard (Rolling Stone) that this one is supposed to be a lot more stripped down production wise.

I don't know, I kinda like the 'broadway' aspect of his stuff.

Bustette must be excited. LURVS her some Rufus. I took a little while to get warmed up on the whole "showtune" aspect, but yeah I definately like to hear someone go to the Nth degree once in awhile.

yeah, just from listening to those 3 songs on the e-card, this sounds more in line with poses than want one or want two. which is a-ok in my book.

I'm actually bigger fan than she is. I think like half the albums she has are recommendations she's gotten over the years but never really got into them.

I swear she's been listening to the same four or five CDs for the last year and a half easy. No bullshit.

What she lacks in musical diversity she MORE than makes up for in literature.

I used to be almost as bad, but I'm sloooowly changing, to where I get really excited about falling in love with the next two or three albums. Don't know what took so long, but I'm starting to like the variety a lot more than I did before.

Which means he's back on the smack again?

I enjoy the Rufus, but those Want discs are a little exhausting.

Agreed. I listen to the first two albums far more than the last two.
