At least TP did not issue a hip hop album. I would be the ONLY person on Gon thinking that was great.
Like it as well. Thought it would have the warm tubey magic of Dave Alvin but it is a much more traditional sounding album, almost a throwback to the Yardbirds era of British R & B. Agree with Shadorne--this will sound amazing live. My favorite track is "Pirate's Cove."
She's The One. Nice golf shot there, Loomis. My favorite TP album. Very under-rated. Love the loose feel.

Kind of underwhelmed with Mojo. Maybe it is just me, but it is not growing on me. I find I have been more focused on the new Exile on Main Street rather than his new album. Love the grungey feel of Exile and superb playing over many genres (gospel, blues, country, rock)--forgot how great an album that one was. Mojo has those moments, but in spurts.
Agree with Shadorne that Mike Campbell is very tasteful player--wished he would pull a Keith from time to time and really drive a song.
TT: I am good. Working the whole Summer. Tom Petty can always be counted on to put on a great show. Working Coachella this weekend; some great private parties with Peter Yorn and Aloe Blacc.

You can have my Petty tix if he plays in Canada! I will catch him with TT by the Bay. My kids and grandkids are firmly rooted there!
