This website is fantastic! I wonder if any of these paintings would be for sale at some time.

any comparision of artists is somehow stupid. they all are influenced by all and do their OWN thing in the end. dylan never was the new guthrie, as springsteen never was the new dylan, and mellencamp never was springsteen etc...everyone can listen and like what he wants, for me bruce springsteen has made great records and his live shows are unique. if i had to chose one, i´d always take john, but i am happy that a few more guys make great music.

btw, german rolling stone had a review of "Sad Clowns & Hillbillies" and gave it 3 and half stars, as they always do. and in the past issue they had a Q&A with john.

I watched the video to this show and it was fantastic! great song list and the band played top. i was wondering who of you is to be seen as the camera sweeps among the crowd.

Facebook??? i have been thinking about where all the fans are, as discussions in this forum got less in the past years.
I am not on facebook, so i stick to the forum here to get some information on what´s happening.
it looks like i always fall behind, it must be my fault. in the 80s/90s i was a member of the Minutes to Memories fan club. black and white newsletter magazines sent out by post to my home country germany. then the internet started to rule the world, and i registered here.
but facebook never, i don´t understand this at all.
so i just hope that this forum continues to exist and I don´t need snapchat for the next album release:)

This information is great, also what you posted about "Grandview" and  "All Night Talk Radio". highly interesting and I wonder about how many songs still are lost somewhere. it´s great that these two songs have been released now.
Thanks for this inside information!

well I hope, because he will be heading to europe after the summer...

Interesting, thanks for this info!
"All Night Talk Radio" also sounds like 90s, I am not sure. "Mobile Blue" being a cover of an old country-song from 1971, this album seems to be a collection of various interesting projects.
currently i only listen to the downloads, until the vinyl version is available here in europe. no lyrics, no info on nothing.
my favourite songs after the first listening rounds: Mobile Blue, Battle of Angels, What Kind of Man Am I.

It sounds great! again an excellent album, John´s creativity cannot be stopped. when listeining to the opening track "Mobile Blue", I felt like back in 1987 when "The Lonesome Jubilee" came out.
The band sounds fantastic, Carlene Carter´s contribution is worthy.
I don´t care when a song has been written or recorded. there has been speculation on when "Grandview" was recorded. I think it´s good if a song like this now is published.
maybe we can get some more details about this record and its songs here.
and I hope i can get a vinyl copy soon.

Thanks a lot for this music to all involved!

Great single, great sound and melody! if it only would be available as 7" vinyl...

I think that´s a great new song. fantastic violine and melody though or because so sad. what else to sing on a day like this. thanks to John for this new music!

this package is one of the best buys in my life. I love carrying the turntable with me and playing the records. the little speakers really deliver a good sound, of course no digital high technology, but it sounds real and natural.

you are right! couldn´t find it on itunes, so i didn´t check anywhere else. thanks for the hint.
I read it´s supposed to be his last album.

the graffiti words are definitely not greek, confirmed by a friend of mine from greece.
so you may be right with Italy.

great news to hear a new Bob Seger album is out! it´s been some time...
unfortunately not yet released here in germany. i tried to get it from the us-itunes-store, but of course in our free, globalized world, that didn´t work.
I hope you all know to appreciate living in the us or canada.

for those interested:
4 stars from german rolling stone in their october issue.
