Absolutely quality album! But does anyone know when the vinyl is coming out? I pre-ordered it on Amazon months ago but they keep pushing the date back - now it's just 'unavailable'. Anyone have any info?


I got it at my local vinyl shop. If yours sells new vinyl they should be able to get it for you. It may be delayed because the demand is so high. Discogs.com is an option too.

(I even delayed listening to the album until I got the vinyl because it came with a free MP3 download!)

Sorry, I thought you all were talking Hiatus.

I preordered the vinyl via the PledgeMusic site way back in the winter. I received the notice that the delivery was delayed until September 10, as well. We'll see what happens.

I think the crowdfunding of the album indicates cash flow issues with getting the vinyl pressed.

Unlistenable.


I guess it's an ego thing - apparently for him it's not enough to make good music or to make music just for having fun; it rather looks he wants to come across as someone who is a "TRUE ARTIST".Probably this is why all his latest stuff sounds so wannabe artsy.


Unfortunately for him (and me) "art" seems to translate for him to "muddy", "distorted" and also apparently recognizable melodies are just for whimps.Honestly, it's a mystery to me how he wants to remember his vocal lines for playing live - melodies pretty much don't exist or are not memorable in any human way.


It's a shame as i still think his first 2 albums belong to the best R&B stuff that has been released in the last 20 years.If only he could let go his "I'M AN ARTIST ! I'M AN ARTIST!" ego..

--- Co-sign This is one of the worst Cd of this year. So glad I listened on Tidal free trial.
