Easily best post Hugh LP.

Studio version of Water wins me over - much better.

Still unpacking No Man's Land, Payday, Last Men, Stallion and Breathe...all great on first listen.

Fair dos 8088. Too early for me to really say how good, the JJ tracks are my preferred ones, and wish he sung a bit more, Water is my current fave next to Dave

First impressions... I found it refreshing

Standout tracks for me are Water, If Something, No Man's Land, Last Men On The Moon, White Stallion, and Breathe. Last 3 tracks are corkers!

Will give this album another spin tomorrow morning :grin:

Yes agreed...Last Men,Stallion,,Breathe all good on first listen,the leader for me at the moment is No Man's Land,Down is much better than the acoustic
sessions version his vocals sounding much better on this studio version.

Payday would've been better without the contrasting middle eight.

Somehow Last Men On Moon reminds me of New Model Army?

Still got a big grin on my face :grin:

White Stallion...(volume goes up a few notches) "we'll be kissing in the rain" - this would be glorious with a video - 'Merica Star Spangled Banner clips and all....

No Mans's Land is a blast - Black & White isms to the fore :grin:
