I feel obliged to post if only because it won’t be February 29th again for four years. It’s also 70 and sunny here in Richmond so I’m not going to waste any more time here inside at this computer. Catch you guys another day.
I’ve been playing the heck out of this at night. The soft guitars and quiet vocals make this a terrific sleepytime album. I wasn’t a big Mojave 3 fan, but when Jack Rabid made Sleeping On Roads a Top 40 pick 2 years ago I felt that it would be worth a try. I really [...]
