Query: Not an easy album

This is a really good record. There are a couple of knockouts, but many of the songs on the record are pretty slow and soulful. Not to say they aren't good, it just took me seven or eight listens to get a bite into the slower stuff. Bought a Whiskeytown album, and the same thing. He's got a great voice, writes good songs, he just needs someone to light a fire under his back side, because when he rocks, it is indeed Gold. You gotta want to be patient to like the slower stuff, but I have slowly acquired a liking for most of the record. It really is a very, very good record, I just wish he would pick up the pace and rock a little more. Highly recommend that you get the limited edition with the extra disc which includes six great, rollicking songs (a great disc on it's own).
