hwllo Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Figured I'd start this up to see if anyone has heard it and what their thought are? It was streaming on NPR and I'm not sure if it still is. I like it! Very solid work, quite a bit different than most MMJ stuff but in a good way. The production is very good as well and it is a nice mix of songs that seem to fit together very well. Overall it was better than I expected and I can't wait for the tour to see what the shows are like Quote Link to post Share on other sites
imsjry Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I love it. To my ears, it sounds like Jim tried to do a David Bowie meets Hall and Oats thing and it actually works. Closer to "Z" in feel if I had to compare it to anything he's done. Great album! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Muzzle of Dan Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I dig it. I've listened a few times now and I'm liking it more and more each time. Excited to see him play at the Fonda Theater (LA) in May. Got GA floor tix this morning! He played his first solo show last night and did the whole album front to back as the main set. I'd like to see that continue for his tour. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
