I've had a few bootlegs of this material over the years so it was great to finally get a proper release. Overall I'm quite happy with the whole package: wonderful sound and liner notes. The one misstep is the inclusion of the Taylor Hawkins cover like Joss mentioned. Cover songs like this should be left for tribute records. Not a big deal, just a slight annoyance.

 

And talking about price, I picked this up at an indie for $24.99 Canadian.

i was surprised to see 4 copies at the local best buy.

i don't think there's any way they'd sell all those...ever.

since it's not on sale, i'll wait and see if amazon gets it back in stock at the lower price.

I finally got to listen to it this morning.

 

Most of the songs sound like they just faded them out in the middle - i.e. they sound incomplete almost - as if he wanted to make his songs fit the 60's time format (most songs between 2-3 mins) when they really needed to be longer.

 

I was really surprised at how big the arrangements were.

I'm wondering how much Dennis was responsible or how much help he got from his brothers.

Just arrived in the mail:

(the Legacy Edition, with all the Bambu (sic.) songs included on a second disc!)

Ripping it to my iTunes now, and will be giving is a first listen today. Cannot wait to hear this one with good sound.

 

I've been getting a lot of music lately, and it's making me happy.
