Just got Jesse's new one...early! Sooooo....I'm in this record store,not walmart,target,best buy,etc....but a record store. Looking for the new live BNH,which I found, while looking I see Jesse's Verbal Penetration in the used cd bin! Neatly wrapped in plastic with a hole punched in the bar code. Needless to say I scooped it up to be bought!
I'm still going through it...but I will say this...the sound bites don't do it justice! So far it's impressive especially with his "Ali v Frasier" cut....never heard Jesse play jazz b4. No credits though...they're gonna be listed on his website! | |

It's a promo copy that the store didn't bother to give a spin. That's why a hole was in the barcode. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

Listening to VP Disc 1 right now... very much a Prince/Lenny Kravitz soul vibe. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

If there's a bridge between those 2 - it's JESSE. It would seem so. I really like the album. It's a different, but not unfamiliar direction for him on this new set.

[Edited 10/28/09 10:44am] Yeah i'm from Columbia but live in Fort Mill near Charlotte so i go to the store in Charlotte mostly now. I've spent plenty of time in the Columbia store. I've also picked up some good vinyl in Charlotte as i picked up Sun's Sunpower on vinyl yesterday along with JJ cd. Don't laugh at my funk

After listening to the samples, I couldn't wait - had to grab this.
Before I get slammed for downloading, let me profess this RIGHT NOW - I am buying TWO copies of this CD. Its that good. Now, I can safely say this: Verbal Penetration > Prince's last 8 CDs. The last CD I was feelin' this much was Van Hunt's On The Jungle Floor and this even trumps that (musically). We're talking the first disc here! Jesse may not drop them often but when he does, OMFG! This is the follow-up D'Angelo CD that everybody wants without D'Angelo. If Prince made this record, he would have the biggest comeback of his career. Its that good. Jesse raised the bar high as hell! [Edited 10/28/09 14:04pm] | |

[Edited 10/28/09 14:04pm] Hmmm I dunno man knowin Prince as we know im', I just know he's got an all out funk/rock album in the vaults somewhere waitin 2 be unleashed. Songs like "Planet Earth", "Fury", "Guitar" and his outta nowhere cover of Foo Fighter's "Best Of You" at Superbowl 04' has gotta say so. lol Same goes 4 D'Angelo only I imagine his will be Hip-Hop influenced as much as it is R&B/Funk [Edited 10/28/09 14:16pm] | |

The cheapest I can find this album in the uk is £16.00 which is about $26.00.
It would have to be fucking amazing for me to warrant spending that on it. | |

You HAVE to hear this record to understand. And the guitar work - OH SHIT!!!!! - its MURDER! Prince might have some gems left in him here and there, but Jesse's CD is FIRE! You don't need a CD a year when you drop 'em like this. The record store near me has ONE copy. I'm going to get it today and put some money in this man's pocket. IT'S THAT GOOD! | |

IT'S THAT GOOD! 4 me, it's a WIN/WIN situation, in 1996... CHAOS and DISORDER + BARE MY NAKED SOUL in 2009... LOTUS FLOW3R/MPLS + VERBAL PENETRATION who wins? we all do, it's all good...

My only complaint with Verbal Penetration is the laboriously long non-music interludes. Stuff like that is fine for a couple of listens, but I'll need to trim them off for the iPod. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

You can get it from Tower Records in Portland (if its still there) or try Everyday Music. [Edited 10/28/09 22:24pm] | |

If you have a Best Buy near you, their website tells you if it's in-stock at that store. Just type in your Zip. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

Told y'all! Given his hiatus...this was a nice way for Jesse to return! Hopefully he tours like he says! Besides he had to give us a double disc for makin' us wait so long! | |

Tried Everyday Music and neither of the 2 locations in Portland have it. squirrelgrease said: If you have a Best Buy near you, their website tells you if it's in-stock at that store. Just type in your Zip. According to their site, no Best Buy's in the city have it! Looks like I'm just gonna have to order it online, or get a store to get it in. There is Best Buy just 5 minutes walk from here, I'll see if I can get them to get a copy into the store. |
