I like the double album notion; makes it 2 digestible chunks. Both together
would have fit on one CD. and it cost what a single would cost.

Subject: Latest Ryan Adams and other new stuff
I'm really enjoying the new album. Despite being a double CD, it appears on
early listening to be almost filler-free. Seems that co-writing credits with
the band mean that Ryan doesn't feel the need to release every single
thought he had as an album track.
Other recent releases worth a special mention are Hal - great 60's
influenced pop, but with a bang up to date feel - like what would have
happened if the Beach Boys formed in 2004, and The Go-Betweens - rightly
highlighted by Mojo as an Instant Classic. I can't think of any comeback as
satisfying as theirs. I loved Bright Yellow Bright Orange (2003), and Oceans
Apart is even better.
Mike.
