The 2 songs that have grabbed my attention so far are Lies and Truth, and whatever song is at the 28 minute mark. I lost track of counting the songs. lol! I'm a sucker for the beat on this track. Love it! Great vibe! The song after is great too.
Is it Shine on at the 28 mark?

OMG OMG OMG! This post is a few days late in going up, but I'm still in a 'capital letter' mode! Bought my tickets earlier this week on the pre-sale for the September show in Boston. I've seen Joe perform maybe 1/2 dozen times, I think the closest I've been has been about 20 rows from the stage. But I scored FRONT ROW for the Orpheum Theatre show! PSYCHED! Maybe I'll get lucky and win the after pass show contest too!

Thanks for the preview!!! Now for the post of random thoughts!
I was cautiously optimistic after only hearing "A Door Into Summer" and had to give it a few listens before truly warming up to it as more than just a safe, happy song. It is a good track and certainly has a place in the lineup.
Everything else I've heard on the album is top notch, and definitely has classic and renaissance Joe. :) Assuming that the tracks in the preview are in the same order as they appear on the album, "Can't Go Back" is one of my early favorites.... KILLER USE OF WAH, in true Joe form! (I'm pulling the JS1000 out today and my 535Q and taking a stab at it! hehe) ;)
"Jumpin' In" is a solid jam as well and shines when he hits the bridge.
Portions of "Lies and Truths" seem to have some roots from a few of the Big Bad Wah demo tracks, particularly the last three JAM mixes:
VOX Big Bad Wah tracks
I think "Three Sheets To the Wind" and "I'll Put a Stone On Your Cairn" are both truly soulful masterpieces...
I really enjoy the full, warm, and complex melodies Joe brings to the table this go around. (Well, every go around I guess... hehe) It seems crazy it's been 2 1/2 years since BSAWW came out! Among others from that one, the bonus track "Longing" from BSAWW was a beauty and sang to the heavens...
I really hope some tour dates in the midwest are added! (think Chicago, Indy, or St. Louis)
Thank you Joe for another chapter in your story.

Joe,I'm drunk little bit,I know there is almost no chance to play like you or have a lesson from you,but I know I can be so creative in any field,I feel like a monster that can't reach enough information.I have to discover every concept myself without a fucking teacher,and it feels alone and unfair,and I feel like I need to discover every discovery in music because I'm a physicist and I don't have much experience in music.I wonder so much,even once I told to my parents that I want to be a fucking rocking guitarist.Actually I shouted at them after a car accident I made,you don't expect that from a physicist.I saw how idealistic and creative you are,and I'm listening and watching you with admire.I came to life once,and as you did when you were young(you look still at 30's),I want to have a lesson from you,I don't have any fucking money,I don't have any property or anything I'm so fucking broke and trying to become a nuclear physicist.I want to have a lesson with you and it's like falling in love desperately,I don't want fame,I want to know how music works and what's for you,what you did?I want to sit down with you and discover new music,why we like it so much?What are the rules?There is so much thing that I can't say...Actually,I don't expect you to answer(my logical side) but I expect you to answer this,when you play,I wonder what are you thinking in your mind.I don't know it,this is one of my biggest question in life,how you think when you compose or play.A melody,a chord progression,a song.

Damn Joe, I don't know how you do it! The first time I heard Three Sheets to the Wind, I absolutely hated it, now after listening to it several times, I really like it! (except for the horn part, I still don't like that part)
After listening to the album on repeat all day, I am really diggin' this album. Great job Joe!

As much as I'm sure you'll take this to heart, Joseph, ignore the hate mails. Tis a lovely album... Three sheets to the wind is the most memorable ridiculous melody I've ever heard and it's been stuck in my head since the pre-release
I'm just pissed there's no Irish date.. Sometimes I wish Skippy was Irish... you'd be here every week ;)

Also, good for you on waiting T.Safley. The curse of the internet in all it's brilliance has managed to absolutely whole-hartley bum fuck the music industry for all it's worth and it's a miracle such nice music as this gets released to all of our lovely ears...

New album is very challenging to listen to. And I mean that in a good way. Joe really went a totally different direction with this. Which is kinda weird to say after BSAWW. Another awesome thing about what I've heard so far is that each song is reminiscent of several of his albums. Can't Go Back=Strange Beautiful Music. Lies And Truths= Is There Love In Space? Shine On American Dreamer= The Extremist. The Weight Of The World= Engines Of Creation Listen to them again and you'll hear it. But before I start giving reviews on them, I want to hear them more in-depth. So once I get the album delivered to me I'm going to give it a couple of listens.
P.S. - Three Sheets To The WInd has to be one Joe's goofiest riffs, but it was stuck in my head ALL DAY LONG. Props to you, Joe. Don't know how you do it.

Thanks for coming to Mebourne Joe xxx

The new album is good, but the mastering is far too loud and compressed! Can't listen at loud levels. One of the worst masterings I've heard this year!!!

Joe - such an amazing record! It must be nerve wracking working so hard on your 'baby' and then handing it over for us to pick apart, must be scary as hell. There's something for everyone in here, and it's all so good. Classics, all of them. Stellar work as usual
Skippy - thanks lovely. Such a fun, catchy song. It's literally what it says on the tin!
Michelle - love you pippys don't count if you're 7 sheets to the wind when you say it lol. No worries, I will check emails. Guessing package arrived
Three Sheets - didn't Joe say the track was about some well off chap getting plastered and into fights and dodgy situations like taking the wrong night bus? No, it's def not about anyone on here lmao
Lies and Truth - there's an epic harmony hook, three or more guitars I suspect, where it almost sounds like the guitars are letting out a sigh. Does anyone else get that vibe? Killer track!
Cheese - there's a stream, the link is out there, or just clicky
HERE and enjoy some fine Joseph
Right, I need to go and buy a chicken....
