Are we feeling it? It's quite a departure for them in the sense that's there quite a bit of rock layered over the top of the deep funk foundations for which they've always been justly famous (and obviously a wider range of guest vocalists than they've used on any one of their previous albums).

It took a couple of listens for it to grow on me, but growing it is - I still don't think it is quite as good as "4", but if it exposes them to a wider audience, I'm all for that.

Havent checked t out yet - it's not in vinyl!

You're shopping at the wrong providores des vinyl, monsieur:

Man... I added this to an order on the strength recently, and I have to say:

NOT.FEELING.IT.AT.ALL.

As in: I'm thinking of creative ways to dispose of this double album.
