    Just my opinion, this is one of the finest new acoustic music releases of the past few years. Stunningly beautiful original music.

    Listening now. Beautifully recorded. Extraordinary arrangements. Looking forward to many repeats to absorb this welcome addition to the Joe Walsh collection.

    Joe has really become one of my favorite players in the last few years. Due in part to his wonderful Peghead Nation course plus his work with Mr Sun. Excited to listen to this via Bandcamp download as well as on vinyl!

    Caught the CD release show in Saratoga with Darol Anger, Grant Gordy, Brittney Carlson, and John Suntken on drums. As expected a delight, they were really hanging back and focusing on the tunes, not a lot of showy soloing which i greatly appreciated! He played mandolin, octave mandolin and a lot of mandola, what a voice on that instrument! It was pouring rain and sludgy but it was like coming in out of a storm to something wonderful. Picked up the CD, I'm sure it will be on the commute for a while.

    I think (fuzzy recollection from M&B podcast) the drummer was going to be the same as in the album.

    It’s on my “buy” list for the new year! (Listening on Spotify for now.)

    I caught it via live stream from the venue's website in the comfort of my living room in NC. Excellent show all around! I agree about the focus on the tunes more than overdoing it with the technical mastery that they all could have done. I believe that was mentioned by Joe somewhere as a goal for the recording as well.

    Keith John Suntken drummed on the album and on the tour so far.

    I stayed home from work Friday and played that Cd over and over all morning.
