Dino, it is one that you play... think it is real good, play again, like it more, every time you hear new things, it hasn't left my player either. These guys have something to say, musically and message wise. To me, they carry on the tradition of The Band, in the sense they are multi-instrument virtiousos. More than that, they are remind me in the sense of how the songs are crafted with many elements and dimensions. Beyond the similarities there, they have taken on a voice of real America. The Band (in spite of being Canadian) were Americana. These guys are too. These guys have their finger on the pulse of real USA that most rockers don't. I can go on and on... on so many levels it is just the best sh*t. I came back to correct spelling errors so I could say more.... Tony y Maria may be the best love song ever written, Maria Christina makes me want to Mambo and I NEVER wanted to Mambo, Done Gone Blue is so good, and........ ooops, found another typo, back again, and I should note for guitar freaks, there are indeed blistering licks mixed in with all that fine song craftsmanship.....
