Re: Blues Of Desperation Official EPK

This video shows a Deluxe Silver Edition of the CD. I'm guessing a version with bonus songs (like on Different Shades of Blue)? Not sure. And not shown in the store, yet anyways.

Re: Blues Of Desperation Official EPK

Was I imagining or did the legendary Steve Cropper drop by the studio in that vid?

sounds big and powerful from that video.

Wow..
I just decided to see how much this pre-sale will cost me.
the CD is 13.99 + 5.99 shipping so $19.99usd to my usa address.
shipping to  my main Canadian address is $14.99 shipping all in USD.. add the Canadian conversion of 1.5x and a CD that will cost me about $25cdn will turn into a $43cdn pre-order.

think I'm going to have to wait till the stores get it up here.

Re: Blues Of Desperation Official EPK

So that's why I can never sound like Joe .. he uses 'THESE'.

Seriously though, that sounds killer!

Re: Blues Of Desperation Official EPK

Both teased songs sound amazing, I loved them. The second song I didn't really like the women back ups, felt a little bit out of place, but man, those drums, that bass, those guitars.... Shirley outdid himself on this one!

Love the going back to just drums, bass and guitar!

Track Listing:

This Train
Mountain Climbing
Drive
No Good Place For The Lonely
Blues Of Desperation
The Valley Runs Low
You Left Me Nothin’ But The Bill And The Blues
Distant Lonesome Train
How Deep This River Runs
Livin’ Easy
What I’ve Known For A Very Long Time

Re: Blues Of Desperation Official EPK

Wow, sounds killer! When he was talking about all the "mountains" he's climbed reminded me of back at the Baked Potato last July when he was discussing all that. He had just finished recording this album and it was a mountain among many that he climbed and overcame last year. The song "Mountain Climbing" itself sounds really cool. Love the heaviness and two drums. Can't wait to hear the entire album!

Re: Blues Of Desperation Official EPK

I thought he was going to take a few years off from making studio cd's? But then I get an email asking me to pre order the new cd...
