i think its the first great album i bought that was released this year.
I don't know that I'd agree (the new Laura Cantrell album is really cool, too), but I will say that it was a refreshing change from the subpar records that a lot of my favorite artists are putting out this year.

BevMo is the greatest. No, Honeycomb is the greatest. I'm gonna grab a guinness.

I don't think there's a track on the entire that I don't like in the least bit. I think this might quickly become my favorite!

I ran into Tower records at lunch also, and the sticker said $11.99 which I thought was a good deal, but when I bought my 2 copies it was $9.99 as well! Awesome! Played it for a friend from work while we ate take out in the car.
It sounds much more "bassy" than the leaked version to me. Almost harder to hear the guitar as clearly with the added bass, but it sounds great and full. Vocals sound smooth and good from my first listen.
I need to hit 2 other record stores this week to buy a couple more copies.
All of the true things I am about to tell you are shameless lies |

Bevmo is the booze lovers mecca! So many different and new (to me) brews to choose from! I need to stay away from that place, it's easy to blow loads of dough in there. And you should'nt worry, Beamish is a great beverage, a nice alternative to Guinness which I believe is now produced in a brewery in Canada so they can still call it "imported" for all us yanks. The quality don't seem the same though. And anything Sammy Smiths is great although I prefer the Imperial Stout. Now for the record review: it's great! It seems very lullabyish by normal FB standards, good drinkin' music. $9.99 at Tower! It pays to buy it on opening day I guess!!! I'm a little upset though because one of my favorite songs from the bootys that were circulating was "Highway to Lowdown" but where is it?!!!!!  Sounds nice though, I really like the moodiness of "Dark end of the Street". Anyway, happy listening to all! And ofcourse a big thank you to Frank!!! |

I called the local indie record store and they didn't get it until Friday, so I went ahead and went to Borders to pick it up for the ridiculous price of $14.99, but it was worth every penny! I'll try and post a review after I've listened to it at least ten times.

I like the new version of SSMVGD too. I think it's cool that the guy from the Boston Herald called it a hippie song. Of course, the hippie's are the one's that are running the country now. Some of them anyway. Where's the legalized grass? Oh wait...that's another thread. You see what the excitement does to me?!

And Kirk, start saving those pennies because in a couple of days you'll owe me a dollar or two or three...

That Emerson quote kicks a lot of ass! I'm listening to the new album right now, and it's sounding good. I envision many listenings ahead.

Oh, I bought this album so long ago... on July the sixth, I was back in Paris... still not having heard of the bombs in London... Bought at the same time "This last night in Sodom" by Soft Cell... And on the way to Pigalle to find an electro-acoustic guitar... A senior-prostitute asked me if i had an hour... I said "Oh What for? Sorry I have a guitar to buy..."
Learnt the bad news on the phone from my mother... took a taxi to get back home and thought: "Gotta play music before i die and for the ones i love. Tuned my new guitar with "Honeycomb" and played along these 'not so new songs' but really enjoyed the official order and that the few boring songs from the leaked version were 'skipped'... (except All around the World, which I dig a lot)...
Et voilą...
Hope you'll enjoy like I did... still it was not the same as his previous albums... Yeah, please don't ever make available an album on that fuckin' net before its release. TA
I wonder what my friend Julien who resisted the temptation until the 4th though of HC???
